Lujano Gets Tricky and Earns a Double Up
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Level 10: Blinds 1,000/2,000/2,000 Big Blind Ante
A player from under the gun raised to 6,000, which was called by Daniel Lujano in the cutoff. It then folded to the big blind who three-bet to 17,000. The under the gun player called, but Lujano four-bet all in for his stack of 69,500. The big blind then five-bet all in, and the under the gun play gave it some thought before mucking J♥J♦ face up to leave the players heads up.
Daniel Lujano: Q♥Q♦
Big Blind: A♠K♥
Lujano got tricky with his pocket queens, just smooth calling the open from the under the gun player. But he would still need to win the race to stay in the tournament. When the board ran out 3♦7♦6♥6♣3♣ the pocket queens were still best, giving Lujano the double up.
