Iche Finds Hero Call
Level 30
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Mohamed Iche opened to 250,000 in early position and, after using two time banks, Sergio Pinto Teixeira defended his big blind.
On the Q♦6♥4♠ flop, Teixeira led out with a bet of 350,000. Iche called.
The 4♣ rolled off on the turn, and Teixeira continued with the aggression, firing out a bet of 550,000. Iche called again.
The A♦ completed the board, and Teixeira was not deterred, despite it greatly favouring his opponent's range. Teixeira slid out a bet of 900,000, and after about two minutes thought, Iche called.
Teixeira let out what was presumably a French swear word before turning over 7♣3♣ for the missed straight draw, while Iche had J♠J♣ for third pair jacks.
