Guerra Chops; Volpe Doubles
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Ian Matakis raised to 75,000 in the small blind and Lautaro Guerra called from the big blind. On the 9♠6♥2♦ flop, Matakis check-called for 25,000 and then bet 225,000 on the Q♣ turn, Guerra called all-in.
Lautaro Guerra: K♣Q♥8♥4♣
Ian Matakis: K♥Q♦J♠10♦
Matakis had a ton of straight outs, but the 3♦ river gave both the same hand (pair of queens with king kicker) for a split pot.
Almost at the same time on a nearby table, Paul Volpe raised the pot to 85,000 on the button and then called all-in for 310,000 when Raj Vohra repotted.
Paul Volpe: 10♣10♥9♦8♥
Raj Vohra: A♦K♥9♣4♦
The Q♣J♠3♠4♥J♦ board kept Volpe ahead with his pair of tens for the double.
