Dopazo Finds Queens to Double Through Ilyas
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
With action folding around to Francisco Dopazo in the cutoff, he moved all in for his last 44,500. Semsettin Ilyas quickly called from the small blind to put him at risk.
Francisco Dopazo: Q♥8♥
Semsettin Ilyas: J♦J♣
Dopazo was behind preflop, but the Q♠4♣9♠ flop put him out front with top pair, prompting an immediate shake of the head from Ilyas.
The 10♦ on the turn took away some of Ilyas’ outs, and though he asked the dealer for a king on the river, it was the Q♦ that showed up instead, improving Dopazo to trips and locking up the double.
Ilyas was left visibly frustrated as Dopazo stacked his newly won chips.
