Dossío Wins the Flip to Strengthen His Position
Paulo Castelo opened from early position and action folded around to the small blind, who moved all-in for his remaining 134,000. Álvaro Dossío, in the big blind, reshoved for just over 160,000, sending Castelo deep into the tank. After several minutes of consideration, the Portuguese player released his hand.
Small Blind: Q♦Q♠ 
Álvaro Dossío: A♠K♦
The player at risk needed to avoid the overcards, but his hopes were quickly dashed as the flop came A♦3♥8♦, pairing Dossío's ace. Neither the 9♣ turn nor the 5♥ river brought one of the two remaining queens. Tras la mano, Castelo aseguró haberse tirado de una pareja de jotas.
Dossío collected the sizable pot and climbed to roughly 310,000 chips. After the hand, Castelo claimed he had folded pocket jacks.
