Pinho Versus Fonseca
Level 18
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
There are only two players from Portugal left in the tournament and they are on the same table. Andre Miquel Ramalho Fonseca had been cruising through the day so far, always above average, and he is still right there but just lost a big chunk to Henrique Oliveira de Sousa Pinho.
Picking up the action on the turn with around 70,000 in the pot, Fonseca check-called a bet worth 45,000 out of the big blind and checked again the river. Pinho bet 80,000 and was paid off after plenty of consideration to flip over for the straight to scoop a big pot.
