Andrade Turns the Nuts to Double
Level 23
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
No-Limit Hold'em
Laszlo Bujtas opened the button to 170,000 and Gabriel Andrade called from the big blind.
The flop came J♥3♥K♠ and Andrade check-called a bet of 100,000 from Bujtas to see the Q♠ hit the turn. Again Andrade checked, then Bujtas bet 430,000. Andrade had 1,420,000 behind and moved them all into the middle, which Bujtas called after thinking out loud.
Gabriel Andrade: A♦10♣ 
Laszlo Bujtas: K♥10♦
Andrade had the nuts and Bujtas could only get a rebate on the hand if he found an ace on the river to chop. Instead, the 8♦ rolled off, giving Andrade a double-up.
