Brazilians Well Represented

With 2,700 in the pot and a flop of {3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{J-Diamonds}, Brazilian Alexandre Gomes checked and allowed his opponent in the cutoff to bet 2,250. Gomes tanked for awhile before releasing his hand. Gomes is still sitting pretty with 20,000 and no doubt looking to become the second Brazilian poker pro to win a bracelet this year . . . the other was his good friend Andre Akkari.
