Gomes Reduced

A player in middle position raised before the flop, and Alexandre Gomes made it three bets to play. His opponent called the extra 100, and it was heads up the rest of the way.

The dealer spread out the first three cards {5-Spades} {10-Diamonds} {2-Spades}, and the unknown player check-called a bet from Gomes. On the {3-Diamonds} turn, he led out into the pot, Gomes raised to two bets, and he called.

The last card off was the {8-Clubs}, and Gomes had his final bet called. He turned up {Q-Clubs} {10-Clubs}, but it was second-best. His opponent showed up {K-Clubs} {10-}, his king kicker earning him the pot and pushing Gomes down to 4,300 here in the early going.
