Ufano Gets Much-Needed Double Up

Level 21 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

With blinds and antes increasing every level, Jorge Ufano needed to make a move and fast.

He found a spot under the gun when he jammed the rest of his stack, which amounted to 160,000. A player in late position called, but folded when Ruben Costa re-raised all in out of the big blind.

Ufano: 3?3?
Costa: A?K?

Ufano held the lead with a pocket pair, and he won the race with a much-needed double up when the dealer placed 2?6?9?8?7? on the board.
