Ufano Gets Much-Needed Double Up
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
With blinds and antes increasing every level, Jorge Ufano needed to make a move and fast.
He found a spot under the gun when he jammed the rest of his stack, which amounted to 160,000. A player in late position called, but folded when Ruben Costa re-raised all in out of the big blind.
Ufano: 3♠3♣
Costa: A♣K♥
Ufano held the lead with a pocket pair, and he won the race with a much-needed double up when the dealer placed 2♣6♦9♣8♠7♥ on the board.
