Big Double for Murata

Level 4 : 0/0, 400 ante

Eder Murata called a raise from Anthony Alberto pre-flop to 14,600 and checked the {k-Hearts}{6-Spades}{q-Spades} flop to his opponent who moved all in, covering his opponent.

Murata used a time extension before calling with {10-Clubs}{j-Hearts} against the top set of Alberto who held {k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}

The turn was the {8-Spades} but the river {a-Clubs} meant Murata doubled his 48,300 stack to just over 100,000.

Alberto Adds On; Tips Murata for Victory

Level 4 : 0/0, 400 ante

Anthony Alberto was all in for around 15,000 against Eder Murata who earlier had doubled through him.

Anthony Alberto: {j-Clubs}{q-Clubs}
Eder Murata: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}

The flop was a good one for Alberto, coming {q-Spades}{10-Spades}{10-Hearts}. The turn was the {8-Hearts} but the river {k-Spades} gave Murata top pair and Alberto was forced to use his add on.

"How much can I wager on him winning this tournament?" said Allberto who now has a fresh stack of 30,000 to play with.
