Festal Claims an Early Knockout
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
With the board reading J♠7♦3♠ and about 2,100 in the pot, Lucas Orsatelli bet 3,300 from early position and received calls from Yann Festal in the hijack and Juan Reyes Santana in the button.
On the 10♥ turn Orsatelli fired a second barrel for 8,500 and Festal responded by moving all in, sending Santana into the tank.
After about two minutes Santana made the call to put himself at risk and Orsatelli opted to fold.
Juan Reyes Santana: A♠8♠
Yann Festal: 3♥3♣
Festal was well ahead with a set of threes but Santana still had outs in the form of the nut flush draw. The 6♦ river was a blank and Santana was eliminated early while Festal scooped in a sizable pot.
