Patterson Sends Pretto Home
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
The board read 9♣J♦10♦ with over 30,000 when this hand was picked up. Eder Pretto was all-in for 35,000 from the big blind position before Matthew Patterson made the call from the button to put Pretto at risk.
Eder Pretto: 10♥2♦
Matthew Patterson: Q♦5♦
Pretto was ahead with his pair of tens, but Patterson had plenty of outs with his flush and straight draw, as well as an overcard with his queen.
The queen became a pivotal part of the story when the Q♠ came on the turn to give Patterson the lead.
The 4♥ river completed the runout as Pretto was eliminated from contention.
