Up and Then Down for Barbosa

[user46392]

Marc Inizan raised to 56,000 in the cutoff but Joao Barbosa made it 140,000 from the small blind. The Duc Ngo, woefully short in the big blind, thought about it for a while but eventually passed. Inizan folded too, and Barbosa took the pot.

The next hand Barbosa raised again, this time from the button. The unhappy Ngo folded again, but this time Iikka Tahkokallio called in the big blind.

They saw a {2-Spades}

flop and Tahkokallio bet out 59,000. Barbosa promptly made 180,000. Back to to Tahkokallio - and he made it 380,000 to go. Barbosa disappeared into the tank for a while, and when he came out again he folded.

Barbosa - 700,000
Tahkokallio - 1.8 million
