Tsukamoto Can't Catch a Card
Level 16
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Joao Filho raised to 40,000 in the hijack and Thiago Tsukamoto three-bet to 120,000 on the button. The action was back on Filho who four-bet shoved all in. Tsukamoto called off his stack of just over 600,000 and the cards were tabled.
Thiago Tsukamoto: A♠K♠
Joao Filho: 8♥8♣
It was a coin flip and the flop of J♥7♥6♥ heavily favored Filho with the lone pair and the only flush draw. The 7♠ turn and J♠ river was no help to Tsukamoto who was sent to the payout desk.
