Balsalobre Holds For a Massive Double
Nivel 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 2,500 ante
Pedro Balsalobre bet 6,000 from the hijack on a flop of 7♦5♥A♦ and Jonas ten Cate called in the small blind. Babak Shahrtash then moved all in from the big blind and Balsalobre spent several minutes in the tank before calling for 69,000. Ten Cate quickly got out of the way.
Pedro Balsalobre: A♣Q♠ 
Babak Shahrtash: K♦8♦
Balsalobre was ahead with top pair, while Shahrtash was chasing a flush draw. The 4♥ turn was safe for Balsalobre, while the 2♣ fell on the river. "Vamos!" Balsalobre yelled out as he loudly clapped his hands in celebration and raked in the massive pot.
