Belluscio Doubles Through Kliper
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Arie Kliper raised to 50,000 from early position. Both Julio Belluscio on the button and Nariman Yaghmai in the big blind made the call.
The flop came 8♣7♠9♠; it was checked to Belluscio, who fired a bet of 100,000. Yaghmai looked over to Belluscio's stack and folded, but Kliper asked how much Belluscio had behind. Belluscio counted it out, and Kliper raised to around 255,000. Belluscio shoved for 460,000 in total for Kliper to snap-call.
Julio Belluscio: J♠J♦
Arie Kliper: J♣9♥
Kliper had flopped top pair while both had a gutshot to a straight, but Belluscio was ahead with the overpair.
The rest of the board was completed with the 8♥ and Q♦ for Belluscio to hold and double up with the higher two pair.
