Barbero Runs Into Kings
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Nacho Barbero jammed for 41,500 from middle position and was at risk against Jacopo Achille in the cutoff.
Nacho Barbero: A?9?
Jacopo Achille: K?K?
"Perfect," Barbero said. "I'm winning this one for sure."
The dealer spread the 10?10?5? flop to keep the kings ahead.
"What?" Barbero said in disbelief as an ace somehow did not appear on the flop.
The K? turn left Barbero drawing dead, and the meaningless 8? confirmed the result to eliminate him.
