Rocha Finds the Right Call
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Gianluca Cedolia opened to 5,000 from the hijack and Lucas Silva Rocha three-bet to 15,500 from the button. Cedolia made the call.
The flop came 8?8?9?. Cedolia checked, Rocha bet 9,000 and Cedolia called.
Both players checked the A? turn leading to the K? river. Cedolia burned through two time banks before firing a bet of 45,000. This time it was Rocha in the tank, also burning through two time banks before making the call.
Cedolia had two pair with K?Q? but Rocha had a bigger two pair with A?3? to take the pot.
