Sweet Start For Alvarado

Level 3 : 100/200, 0 ante

JC Alvarado, runner up finisher in last year's EPT Barcelona €50,000 High Roller, has had an amazing start of the day so far. The Mexican pro just gave us a brief rundown of how he managed to triple his stack.

Alvarado three-bet with queen-seven suited and was four-bet by the big blind. With 1,200 invested Alvarado called 2,000 more to see a flop in position. The flop brought {Q-}{7-}{K-} and after a raising war Alvarado got his opponent all in with {K-}{10-}.

Later on Alvarado busted another player when he held {K-}{K-} versus {J-}{J-}. The majority of the chips went in on the flop and Alvarado's hand held up.
