Vieira Makes Quads
Level 9
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Sergi Reixach moved in his final 39,000 from middle position and action folded around to the big blind who called.
Sergi Reixach: A♥K♣
Opponent: A♣4♠
The board ran out Q♠10♥6♣9♥6♦ and Reixach doubled his stack through the big blind.
The following hand saw Joao Vieira raise to 20,000 in middle position which saw action fold over to the small blind this time who three bet to 70,000. Vieira moved all in for 250,000 effective and the small blind snap called to put himself at risk.
Opponent: Q♣Q♥
Joao Vieira: J♦J♣
The flop of 9♦J♥J♠ left very little hope for the small blind to survive and the 8♣6♠ runout ensured that he would be eliminated from the tournament.
