Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Joao Simao
Joao Simao

Joao Simao raised to 1,300 and it was called by the cutoff and Caio Hey in the big blind.

The flop appeared 3♣Q♦2♦ and Hey checked to Simao who continued for 1,600. The cutoff called, then Hey raised it to 6,000, putting Simao into the tank. After some time, Simao shoved and it folded to Hey who snap-called.

Joao Simao: 9♦9♠
Caio Hey: Q♥2♥

Simao was in terrible shape for the double up with Hey holding two pair. The 2♠ improved Hey's hand into a full house and Simao made his way to the exit after the J♥ completed the board.

Level 4 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

There was an early position open by Adekunle Olonoh to 900. The cutoff called, the button called, and Faraz Jaka called from the big blind.

The A♦5♦J♠ flop landed and action checked to Olonoh who continued for 1,400. The cutoff called, the button called, and Jaka folded.

The 5♥ hit the turn and action checked through. The river brought a 9♣ and Olonoh put his foot back on the gas and bet 8,000. The cutoff folded but the button didn't wait more than a few seconds before going all in.

Olonoh snap called the jam and immediately tabled J♥J♣ for a turned boat and the button showed A♣9♣ for two pair.

All the chips went in the middle on the flop 8♣2♦3♥ between Humberto Brenes, at risk for a remaining stack worth 20,000, and his opponent, who had him covered:

Humberto Brenes: K♥K♦
Opponent: J♣J♥

Brenes had the dominated hand but a J♠ showed up on the turn to give a set of jacks to his opponent. Brenes was ready to be eliminated, but a miracle K♣ landed on the river to give the winning hand to Brenes and the double up.
