The Jo?o Bauer Power Hour

Level 17 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

Jo?o Bauer (who, we must admit, we affectionately have started calling "Jack Bauer") doesn't just dodge bullets; he destroys them. Bauer got his whole 475,000-chip stack into the middle with pocket kings and ran smack dab into the pocket aces of Marcelo Andrade. But he's Joao Bauer; no mere bullets can stop Joao Bauer. Sure enough, Bauer matched his two kings with a third on the flop, {7-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The turn and river blanked out harmlessly, {9-Spades} and {4-Spades}. Andrade had managed to accumulate 397,000 chips until his brutal and sudden demise. When those chips were added to Bauer's stack, he took over the chip lead with about 875,000.

"You are lucky and good," said Amos Ben Haim in amazement.
