Nacscimento No More

Sam Trickett has just doubled up to more than 60,000 in a massive hand against Rodrigo Nascimento.

As Trickett recalled to us, he raised from late position before Nascimento called from the big blind to go heads-up to a flop that read {J-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{3-Spades}. Nascimento check-called Trickett's bet of 3,200, then both players checked the turn of the {10-Spades} before Nascimento open-shoved on the river of the {2-Clubs}.

Trickett went deep into the tank - and we mean almost-to-the-center-of-the-earth deep - before making a crying call with {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

"Nice call," said Nascimento, who showed {A-Spades}{6-Hearts} for nothing but a busted flush draw. Their table was broken immediately after that, but no sooner had Nascimento had sat down, he was back up and out of the Amazon Room to sign off on his payout.
