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 {10-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs} 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: {9-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}
Lopez: {q-Spades}{10-Clubs}

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 {j-Hearts} turn left Lopez drawing dead. A meaningless {6-Hearts} completed the board and Forlenza doubled through.
