Vieira Closing In On a Million
Level 13
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Joao Vieira raised to 16,000 in middle position and Julien Sitbon defended from the big blind. The flop fell 8♦4♥2♦ and Sitbon check-called a bet of 25,000 from Vieira.
The 2♣ paired the board on the turn and Sitbon led out with a bet of 22,000. Vieira called and the 3♥ completed the board. Sitbon sized up a bet of 93,000 on the river and Vieira mulled it over before just calling. Sitbon tabled 9♥2♥ but Vieira rivered a straight with A♦5♦ to claim the pot.
