Dourado Survives on the River
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Aloisio Dourado was all in for his last 640,000 from early position and up against 2022 PokerNews Cup Winner Gary Gelman on the button.
Aloisio Dourado: A♦J♥ 
Gary Gelman: K♥K♠
Dourado needed help to stay alive as the J♠5♠4♦ flop gave him some hope with a pair. The turn was the 8♥, while the A♠ fell on the river to give him two pair and a double up.
"You should be on your way back to Brazil, my friend. On a plane," Gelman said as he handed over most of his stack.
