Lopes Scores a Huge Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Pedro Lopes raised to 35,000 from the button before Mathias Duarte made it 130,000 from the big blind. Lopes called and the flop was A?4?9?.
Duarte fired 80,000 and Lopes called. The turn was K? and Duarte continued for 130,000. Lopes called again and the river was 6?.
Duarte shoved the river and Lopes spread out his time banks to contemplate his last 1,040,000. After a few moments of thought, Lopes slammed down a small stack of chips to call and turned over K?4? for a pair of kings. Duarte showed 9?8? for a pair of nines and Lopes took the huge pot.
Elsewhere, Alejandro Arnold and Frank Lagodich have been eliminated from the tournament.
