Moraes Snaps Off a Player
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Martin Zamani raised to 7,500 from early position and received one caller before Rafael Moraes, in middle position, three-bet to 18,500. The button called, as did Zamani as they went three-handed to the 7♦3♠6♥ flop.
Zamani and Moraes both checked over to the button, who bet 31,500. Zamani quickly folded, but Moraes called after tanking for a few minutes.
The turn came the 10♠ and Moraes again paused for several moments before checking. His opponent then shoved all in for 120,000 and Moraes acted quickly this time, slamming in the chips to call.
His opponent showed 3♣3♥ for a flopped set, but Moraes had 9♦8♦ for the turned straight. The river came the A♠ and Moraes secured a big bustout to climb up to 700,000.
