Barbero Scores Double Up
Level 9
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 0 ante
In a heads-up pot with close to 25,000 in the middle on a flop showing J♥8♠5♣, Gregory Pinsonneault checked from under the gun to Nacho Barbero in the hijack who bet, which Pinsonneault called.
The K♦ rolled off and Pinsonneault checked again to Barbero who bet. Pinsonneault raised to put Barbero all in who made the call for his last 6,000.
Nacho Barbero: A♣K♠
Gregory Pinsonneault: 7♠7♥
Barbero found the turned king to be well in the lead and when the river fell the 5♥ Barbero scored the double up.
