Level 9

Big O

A player in the cutoff raised to 1,600. On the button, Hitesh Patel called, as did Joao Vieira in the big blind.

On the 8♣7♠5♣ flop, the action was checked to Patel, who bet 5,000 and received calls from both players.

The turn brought the 3♥. The action was checked again to Patel, and he continued to apply pressure with a pot-sized bet of 20,600. Vieira called all-in for around 13,000, and the player in the cutoff also called.

On the 5♠ river, Patel bet his remaining 25,000 and got called by the cutoff.

Joao Vieira: A♣K♥Q♦7♣4♦ All in
Cutoff: K♠K♣9♥6♠2♥
Hitesh Patel: J♠6♦5♦4♣3♣ All in

Patel rivered a full house to win the high and ace-four was good enough for the low for Vieira. Patel and the cutoff split the side-pot.
