Caridade Good at Showdown
Level 39
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Martin Tsvetanov opened to 2,000 from the button, and Ricardo Caridade defended the big blind.
The Q♥8♠6♦ flop was checked through to the 9♦ turn, where Caridade led out with a bet of 3,000,000. Tsvetanov called.
The J♦ river completed the board, and Caridade checked. Tsvetanov fired out a bet of 5,600,000, and after some thought, Caridade called.
Tsvetanov tabled K♠6♥ for a pair of sixes, but Caridade was good with Q♣3♣ for a pair of queens.
