Fillipe On Fire

Level 12 : 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Alen Fillipe
Alen Fillipe

Alen Fillipi won a string of hands in a row. The first one being when he called a bluff of queen high {q-Spades}{3-Clubs} on a board of {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}{4-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} when his opponent bet 38,000 on the river and Fillipi called with the {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}.

The next hand Fillipe busted his opponent holding {7-}{7-} with his {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs} in a preflop all in when the board ran out {j-Clubs}{6-}{2-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{9-Clubs} to bring in the flush to overcome the turned set.

A couple of hands later, Maxwell Young felt the wrath of Fillipe when he got it in on the flop of {q-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, when Young was holding the {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} while Fillipe had the flush draw with the {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. The turn connected the flush as the {a-Clubs} came off and the river was the {10-Hearts} to bust Young and give Fillipe another pot in his rush of chips.
