Lococo Drills the Turn to Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Piero Alioto raised to 30,000 in middle position, Alejandro Lococo moved all in for 185,000 in the hijack, and Alioto snap-called.
Alejandro Lococo: A♠8♠
Piero Alioto: A♣K♣
Lococo was dominated and at risk as the flop came Q♣4♣4♥. The 8♥ fell on the turn to give Lococo two pair and the lead, while the river was the 5♠ and Lococo doubled up.
"Never in doubt," tablemate Boris Angelov said.
