Limp-Shove and Get There
Gasperino Nicolas limped into the pot under the gun with a short stack, and the action came around to Josh Ewing in the small blind. He made a raise to 24,000, and that folded Caio Pimenta out of his big blind. Nicolas quickly announced a reraise all in for 102,000 total, and Ewing quickly called with the best hand, the covering stack, and a chance at the knockout.
Showdown
Nicolas:
Ewing:
The flop was a good sweat for both players, and Nicolas began imploring the dealer to find a club in the deck.
Turn:
Nicolas yelled out barbarically and slammed his fist down on the felt, rattling everyone's chips on the table. He still needed to fade a board pair on the river, and the was clean and safe.
That's a very loud double for Mr. Nicolas, and it moves him back up across the 200,000-chip mark.
