Orrico Finds Late Night Double

Level 27 : 15,000/30,000, 3,750 ante

With action in the funal level of the evening, Guilherme "teruliro" Orrico raised to 60,000 from under the gun and action folded to Dmitry "yurasov1990" Yurasov who three-bet all in for 1,584,278 from the cutoff.

Action folded back to Orrico who called off his 603,405 stack and the two players tabled their hands.

Guilherme "teruliro" Orrico: {a-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Dmitry "yurasov1990" Yurasov: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

It was a classic race with Yurasov ahead with his made hand of nines until an ace appeared in the window on the [5d10h1d] flop.

The {k-Spades} turn didn't change anything nor did the {10-Spades} river and Orrico doubled-up.

Saymon "$aymon9" Nascimento: {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}
