Nacho Off To Hot Start

Level 2 : 75/150, 0 ante

With the board reading {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}, Team PokerStars Pro Jose "Nacho" Barbero check-called a bet of 2,600 from an opponent. The river brought the {8-Clubs} and Barbero checked again. His opponent bet 4,100 this time, only to see Barbero pop it to 33,000. After a few minutes in the tank, his opponent folded.

Barbero is up to about 48,000.
