Banda Sails to a Double-Up
Level 27
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Fernando Banda made it 475,000 from the button, leaving himself 40,000 behind. Marcin Kacprzak then shoved the big blind, and after around three minutes, Banda called off his stack.
Fernando Banda: 4♥4♦
Marcin Kacprzak: A♦5♦
Banda hadn't noticed, but had made the pay jump as he saw the A♣K♣3♠ flop hit the felt, which looked to be the end for him. However, he celebrated with a fist pump when the 4♣ on the turn gave him a set.
The hand wasn't over as Kacprzak couldn still hit a wheel, but that didn't happen as the 9♦ rolled in, earning Banda a double-up.
