Haiche Picks Off Ribeiro
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
EPT Prague champion Padraig O'Neill has chipped up to around 170,000 so far on Day 2, but he was a mere spectator this hand as tablemate Idir Haiche raised to 3,000 on the button. Bruno Ribeiro then three-bet to 15,000 in the big blind and Haiche called.
The flop came 8?8?9? and Ribeiro continued for 8,000. Haiche called and the 2? fell on the turn.
Ribeiro then moved all in and Haiche tanked for a minute before calling for his last 36,500. Ribeiro could only show A?J? for ace-high, while Haiche turned over 10?10?.
The river was the 6? and Haiche's pocket tens held up to earn him the double up.
