Barbosa to the Rail; Bicknell Doubles Up

Level 15 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Joao Barbosa was all in preflop for 82,500 and at risk against Marc-Olivier Perrault.

Joao Barbosa: {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}
Marc-Olivier Perrault: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}

The Portuguese media swooped in to capture one of their stars in search for a double up, but the {Q-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} flop was dreadful for them. The {10-Clubs} on the turn added the tens as outs to the aces but neither one appeared on the {8-Diamonds} river.

In the next hand at the same table, Kristen Bicknell shoved all in for 46,000. Everyone folded to Sebastian Von Toperczer in the big blind.

"Alright, let's go!" he said and called with {K-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}. Bicknell held {A-Spades}{K-Spades} and was miles ahead after the {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Spades} flop.

"I see potential," Von Toperczer quipped but any hope of a backdoor miracle got smashed on the {3-Spades} turn and {7-Spades} river to give Bicknell another double.
