Barrera Snaps Off an Opponent
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Toby Barrera three-bet to 4,500 in the hijack before an opponent four-bet to 12,500 in middle position. Barrera called, and they went to a flop of J♣9♥10♦. The middle-position player then moved all in, and Barrera snap-called.
Toby Barrera: 9♣9♦
Opponent: A♣A♠
The middle-position player turned over two aces, but Barrera had flopped a set of nines to take the lead. The board ran out 6♣3♦, and Barrera's opponent walked away from the table before he was called back to confirm if he was covered. Barrera's stack was counted as 63,300, and his opponent was left with just 2,000.
