Julio "Maquina" Arocena Felts a Foe

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

The player under the gun opened to 3,600, the next player to act called, and Julio "Maquina" Arocena three-bet to 9,600 from the hijack. The player in the big blind four-bet jammed, the original raiser folded, as did the other early-position player, and Arocena quickly called to put the big blind at risk.

Arocena: {A-Hearts}{A-Clubs}
Big blind: {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}

Arocena found himself on the favorable side of the ultimate preflop cooler and the big blind needed help from the deck in order to preserve his tournament life. The board ran out {Q-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Arocena took the pot to eliminate his opponent.
