Wilmer Gomez has had a rough go of it here on Day 1b. Most recently, Gomez has been tending to a short stack of around 6,500. It was at that point when a player in middle position opened for 675 and Nacho Barbero called from the button. Gomez decided to call from the big blind, and then turned around a fired out a bet on the flop.
We're not sure how much the bet was for as he put out a T5,000 chip, but quietly said the amount. Whatever the amount, it was enough as both his opponents folded.
Nacho Barbero opened to 500 in middle position and was met with an all-in raise from the player in the cutoff for 4,825. Action folded back to Barbero and he called with . His opponent tabled and held through the board to win the pot.
After two players had limped, the player on the button raised to 700. Flavio Reis was next to act in the small blind and thought for a few moments before three-betting to 2,275. Both limpers got out of the way, while the button decided to make the call.
The flop saw Reis lead out for 2,625, and the button simply mucked. It wasn't a huge pot, but a prime example of how Reis is slowly amassing a stack.
Nacho Barbero opened to 525 under the gun and was called by the player on the button. Leandro Csome three-bet to 1,125 from the big blind, both opponents called, and the flop came down .
A check from each delivered the on the turn where Csome checked again. Barbero bet 2,200 and was met with an immediate all-in call from the button for 1,125. Csome ducked out of the way, leading to Barbero tabling ., He was drawing dead against , making the river meaningless.
At the end of Level 3, Humberto Brenes raised to 600 under the gun. Two seats over, a player three-bet to 1,100. The player on the button called, as did Brenes, landing an flop to the table.
Brenes checked to the three-bettor who fired nearly the size of the pot, 3,100. He was unable to shake the button nor Brenes, leading to the turn. All three opted to check and when the hit the river, Brenes bet 5,000. The three-bettor called, the button folded, and Brenes confidently tabled for a set and won the pot.
