Michael Acevedo

Michael Acevedo opened to 5,000 in late position and both the blinds call to the flop {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}. Both the blinds check and Acevedo bet 6,000 and only the small blind called to the turn of {7-Hearts}.

The small blind checked and Acevedo bet 16,000 then the small blind went all-in putting Acevedo at risk for his tournament life. Acevedo snap-called and the cards were flipped over.

Michael Acevedo: {a-Clubs}{7-Clubs}
Small Blind: {10-Spades}{9-Spades}

The river was the {q-Clubs} and Acevedo won a nice pot with two pair, aces and sevens.

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Joao Vieira moved all-in under the gun for 48,000 and action folded around to the big blind who called.

Joao Vieira: {a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}
Opponent: {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}

The flop and turn of {j-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds} provided no improvement for Vieira and he was all but out of here when the {a-Spades} on the river gave him aces and jacks to stay alive in the tournament.
