Filho Doubles With Kings
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Picking up the action on the turn on a board of 9♦J♠3♠3♣, the hijack checked and Luiz Antonio Duarte Ferreira Filho bet 300,000 from the cutoff. The hijack moved all in and Filho snap-called with the shorter stack.
Luiz Antonio Duarte Ferreira Filho: K♥K♦
Cutoff: A♦J♣
The cutoff had two pair, but Filho had two pair with an overpair, kings and threes. The river was the harmless 7♦ and Filho held to double up his stack, putting him in a solid position late on in Day 1a.
