Correia's Kings Get the Job Done
Nivel 9
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Pedro Neves raised to 8,000 from under the gun and the cutoff moved all in as the short stack for 49,500. Francisco Correia was in the small blind and also pushed all in for 133,500. Leo Rizzo asked for a count and contemplated for a moment but opted to lay his hand down as did Neves.
Cutoff: J♠J♥
Francisco Correia: K♠K♥
Not only did Correia have the superior pocket pair, but he also had both of the suits covered. The board ran out Q♦9♦4♦6♦8♠ and Correia's kings held on for the win.
