Chips for Nacho

With the board showing {10-Spades}{3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and about 1,200 in the middle, Team PokerStars Pro Jose "Nacho" Barbero of Argentina bet 800, and his opponent called. The river was the {6-Hearts}, Barbero bet 2,400, and his opponent got out.

Barbero comes to the WSOP on a torrid streak, having taken down two consecutive Latin American Poker Tour events. In February Barbero bested a field of 307 to win the LAPT Punta del Este Main Event. Then just over a week ago Barbero came away with all the chips at LAPT Lima, where 384 players entered.

Here Barbero looks to be having a good afternoon thus far. With that last hand, Nacho chips up to 31,000 as we approach the midway point of Level 6.
