Valdes Doubles Through Cortijo

Level 29 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

After action was checked to him on a three-way hand, Pablo Valdes, in cutoff, bet 450,000 on a flop of 3Q7 and a pot of around 800,000.

Lucas Cortijo called from the big blind, and Zhan Guo in late position decided to leave the players to go heads-up going to the turn.

Cortijo checked the 9 turn prompting Valdes to shove all-in for around 1,960,000. Cortijo asked for a count then mulled over his situation. He took a few seconds then finally made the call.

Pablo Valdes: AQ All in
Lucas Cortijo: KQ

The river 9 didn't change Valdes' lead. Valdes scooped the pot for a double up as Cortijo started counting his chips looking at how much he had behind.
