Leo Margets Busts in Spectacular Fashion
Leo Margets made it 5,100 to go from first position, and both Sulvain Meriguet behind her and Pierre Nieto on the button made the call. Margets continued for 8,200 on the flop, Meriguet made it 20,500 before Nieto three-bet to 57,000. Margets moved in for some additional chunk change (62,900 total), Meriguet made the call, and though Nieto was eager to get more chips in the pot, he was only allowed by the dealer to fold or call. He opted for the latter.
The rolled off on the turn and Nieto instantly announced all-in for a total of 154,900, more than Meriguet was willing to invest, and he eventually made the fold.
Margets confidently turned over for a flopped two pair, but Nieto just shook his head before revealing for the bigger two pair. The river was no good for Margets, and the Spanish pro quickly left the tournament area while Nieto was left with quite some stacking of chips to attend to.
