Vieira Doubles His Short Stack Then Reshoves From Big Blind
Level 5
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Joao Vieira was under the gun and looking down at a short stack. He made the shove for around 22,000 chips. Seth Davies was the only player who made the call. The two players flipped their cards, with Viera at risk of elimination.
Joao Vieira: A♣3♣
Seth Davies: J♥J♣
Vieira was behind against Davies' pocket jacks. However, the board ran out 4♣5♥4♥A♠4♦ to give him a pair of aces on the turn and a full house on the river. He doubled up and survived to see another round.
The very next hand, Vieira was in the big blind. Action folded to Jean-Noel Thorel, who raised from the button. Vieira shoved all in for around 48,000 and Thorel made the fold.
