Denaro Gets Late Double Up
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Sergio Denaro was all in from early position preflop for 31,000, around ten big blinds. He was looked up by Xavier Pons in the big blind who had a much bigger stack as players flipped their cards.
Sergio Denaro: Q♣J♥
Xavier Pons: J♠9♠
The board ran out J♣3♥9♥J♦Q♦. In a rollercoaster of a pot, both players paired their jack on the flop. Pons made two pair with the nines, then a full house on the turn.
The queen on the river changed it all and Denaro made a higher full house to win the pot to double up his stack late on in Day 1b.
