Baltazar Makes Two Pair
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Four players saw the K♣Q♥2♣ flop, and Vincent Meli checked from the big blind before Moacir Caetano Filho fired 2,600 into the pot of about 11,000. Robert Schiffbauer mucked his hand before Isabel Baltazar made the call, and Meli got out of the way.
The 5♥ hit the turn, and Filho continued for 13,500. Baltazar didn't take long before tossing in the call.
When the 10♣ landed on the river, both players knuckled the table. Filho rolled K♦J♠ for top pair but it was no good as Baltazar tabled K♠10♥, making two pair on the river.
