Nicolas Stayin' Alive

Caio Pimenta came into the pot raising to 35,000, and Gasperino Nicolas found his spot to shove. It was 161,000 total, and Pimenta spent a couple minutes considering before sliding the call into the pot. Nicolas was at risk, and the news was not good for his baby ace.

Showdown
Pimenta: {A-Spades} {8-Clubs}
Nicolas: {A-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}

The {7-Spades} {5-Hearts} {3-Hearts} flop was a decent beginning for Nicolas, and his gutterball would come through in a big way. The {6-Clubs} turned to fill in his straight, and the river {Q-Spades} locked up the double.

Pimenta is down to just over 400,000 after that beat, while Nicolas doubles his way up to about 340,000.
