Nacho, Nacho Man, I Want to Be a Nacho Man

A player in early position raised to 300 and found a call from Nacho Barbero in middle position. The big blind also came along for the ride and it was three-way action to the {J-Spades}{K-Clubs}{A-Spades} flop.

It went check-check to Barbero, who wasted little time in firing out a bet of 625. The big blind made the call, the original raiser got out of the way, and the {9-Clubs} peeled off on the turn. This time the small blind check-called a bet of 1,700 before checking the {3-Hearts} river. Barbero took the opportunity to bet a healthy 4,100, which proved enough to take down the pot as the small blind simply folded.
