Broadway for Neto

Level 1 : 75/150, 0 ante

Further notables in the Brasilia room include Ian O'Hara, Jerry Odeen, Pierre Merlin, Dan Shak, and Jimmy Jonsson. They are all on starting stack still, while Brazil's Francisco Neto bumped up his stack early on.

Neto was involved in a big pot with his table neighbor in the cutoff and flopped Broadway on the board {K-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Clubs}. With more than 12,000 in the middle already, both players opted to check the river, and the player in the cutoff showed {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}. Neto had that beat with {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} for the flopped straight and raked in the pot.
