Atchison Tests, Oliveira Passes
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
There was a large pot brewing with 125,000 in the middle on the river as Naiquel Oliveira from the big blind and Eric Atchison from the hijack saw a completed board of 9♣7♥3♠K♣8♣.
Oliveira faced a decision for his tournament life, facing an all-in from the covering stack of Atchison. With 125,000 left in his stack, Oliveira made the call to put himself at risk.
Naiquel Oliveira: J♣10♣
Eric Atchison: A♣10♦
Oliveira backdoored the third-nut flush while Atchison went for the courageous bluff with the dry ace of clubs, and a massive pot was sent in the direction of Oliveira.
