Ketzer Hops Into Day 1c

Level 4 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Felipe Ketzer
Felipe Ketzer

Felipe Ketzer, who is ranked tenth on Brazil's all-time money list and is a regular at Merit Poker stops, took his seat just after the break and was quickly involved in a pot.

There were around 20,000 in the middle on a board of 62Q9 when Ketzer bet 16,000 from middle position. A player in the hijack called, and the button folded.

When the A completed the front door flush draw on the turn, Ketzer went big with a sizing of 55,200, and his opponent quickly mucked.

Ketzer has final tabled the Merit Poker Classic Main Event on three different occasions, coming 2nd, 3rd, and 9th. The player that Ketzer lost to heads-up in last year's Carmen Main Event is none other than Elie Farah, who is also chasing a bag in Day 1c.
