Giordano Mendes Makes Nuts
Level 14
: 2,000/4,000, 0 ante
Marcelo Giordano Mendes opened from the button and Joon Park defended his big blind. Park drew two cards and Giordano Mendes drew three. Both players checked and second draws went one and two. Park checked and Giordano Mendes bet. Park called and both players stood pat on the final draw. Park checked again and Giordano Mendes made another bet. After thinking for close to a minute, Park flung in calling chips.
"Nuts," Giordano Mendes said.
"Nuts?" said Park as Giordano Mendes turned over 
. "Good hand."
