Pardo Doubles Through the Chip Leader

Chad Holloway

Rafael Pardo moved all in from early position for 271,000 watched his opponents fold one by one all the way to Jonathan Markovitz in the big blind. The chip leader made the call and it was off to the races.

Showdown
Markovitz: {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}
Pardo: {4-Diamonds} {4-Clubs}

Markovitz has been running hot here on Day 3, but this was one he was meant to lose as the board ran out {3-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {J-Diamonds} and Pardo's fours held. The latter is up to 560,000 while the chip leader took a small hit down to 1.4 million.
