Davalos Pips Opponent in Big Confrontation

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Victor Davalos raised to 2,000 from middle position and got called by a player to his direct left. Action folded to the small blind who came in for a three-bet to 8,500.

Both Davalos and the player in late position called to see a 24Q flop. The small blind continued with a bet of 8,000.

Davalos spent about a minute and a half in the tank before calling. The late position player folded taking the remaining two players to the 6 turn card.

The small blind checked and Davalos thought for a moment before tossing out a bet of 16,000. The small blind put in the call and both players headed to the A river.

Action checked through and Davalos showed the JJ which was just a pip better than his opponent's 1010, winning him what had turned into quite a big pot.
