Vallinas Fades the Outs
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ryuta Nakai and Jon Vallinas were on a flop of 10♠3♦A♠. With a pot of 130,000 in the middle, Nakai had 90,000 in front of him under the gun. Jon Vallinas then moved all in for 244,000, which sent Nakai deep into the tank.
After a couple of minutes, Nakai called to put Vallinas at risk.
Jon Vallinas: A♣J♥
Ryuta Nakai: K♠9♠
Nakai turned more outs by pairing on the K♥, but the 10♣ river helped him no further. Vallinas raked in his double-up, denting the big stack of Nakai.
