Forlenza Doubles Through Lopez
Level 33
: 40,000/80,000, 10,000 ante
Angel "Chr0meKing" Lopez opened to 160,000 and John "GameofEdges" Forlenza called.
The flop came ![]()
![]()
and Forlenza checked to Lopez, who continued for 160,000. Forlenza used up quite of a bit of his timebank before opting to check-raise to 376,000. Lopez didn't take long to shove all-in, which was enough to put Forlenza at risk for his last 776,000. Forlenza called.
Forlenza: ![]()
![]()
Lopez: ![]()
![]()
Lopez was two cards away from winning the tournament and would need to fade the open-ended straight draw of Forlenza to win.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the
turn left Lopez drawing dead. A meaningless
completed the board and Forlenza doubled through.
