Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Robert Berton began the action with an open to 2,300 from middle position before Ueberton De Aquino three-bet to 6,300 from the small blind. Ronald Moore four-bet to 51,000 from the big blind, which folded out Berton. De Aquino called for 40,200 to put himself at risk.
Ueberton De Aquino: 8♣8♠
Ronald Moore: A♥K♠
De Aquino needed to fade the overcards. Luckily, the flop only came with one broadway card, and it wasn't one of the danger cards when it came J♥9♥7♦ to keep De Aquino in the lead.
The 5♥ turn introduced a hazard as Moore held the ace of hearts for a flush draw, but the J♣ river was a blank to award De Aquino the double-up.
