Vieira Calls Petrangelo's Bluff to Double Up Again
Level 5
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
A few hands after doubling his short stack, Joao Vieira min-raised from under the gun and was called by Jean-Noel Thorel in the small blind and Nick Petrangelo in the big blind.
The flop came K♦J♥7♦. Action checked to Vieira, who continued for 7,000. Thorel folded and Petrangelo called. The turn was the 2♥. Petrangelo checked and Vieira made it 13,000 to go, which Petrangelo called.
The river was the A♦. Petrangelo moved all in and Vieira used two time banks before making the call.
Petrangelo showed 10♣9♦ for a missed straight and Vieira showed K♥J♦ for top two pair.
With that, Vieira doubled up once again, his stack no longer critically short.
