Barbero the Bully

The table folded around to the blinds where Norbert Ludger and Nacho Barbero saw a cheap flop.

It came {5-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} {9-Spades}, and both men checked. The {J-Clubs} on fourth street drew another check from Ludger, and he called a Barbero bet of 60,000. The last card off was the {6-Diamonds}, and Ludger passed again. Barbero took his time contemplating before making a final bet of 160,000. Ludger folded, flashing the {J-Spades} as he sent his cards into the muck.

Andres Korn Doubles Through Nicolas Cardyn

Andres Korn made it 90,000 under the gun and next to act was Nicolas Cardyn. He made the call and the rest of table folded, leading to a {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts} flop.

Korn immediately shoved for 344,000 and Cardyn took a moment before making the call. The hands were:

Korn: {A-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
Cardyn {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The {K-Spades} turn was no help to Andres, but the {Q-Spades} river sure was and doubled his stack to roughly 930,000. Nicolas Cardyn slips down to about 1,050,000.
