Barbero Drinking Double

In a battle of the forced bettors, Nacho Barbero completed when the table folded around to his small blind. In the big, Cesar Mostafa made it 49,000 straight, and Barbero came right back with an all-in shove for about 250,000 total. Mostafa quickly called with his big stack.

Showdown
Barbero: {Q-Clubs} {J-Diamonds}
Mostafa: {8-Clubs} {8-Diamonds}

It was a race for Barbero's survival, and he would run fastest in this one. The board rolled out {3-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {9-Spades} {K-Spades}, and his pair of queens takes it down. Chips are flying around the room right now as nobody is afraid of playing a big pot.

Barbero - 510,000
Mostafa - 410,000
