Coelho Finds River Hero-Call
In a battle of the blinds between players who have already picked up trophies this week, Diogo Coelho and Leo Worthington-Leese, the pot had swollen to 80,000 with a completed board reading 4♠5♥3♠10♠J♣.
Coelho checked to his opponent, who moved all in for around 41,000 with the covering stack. Coelho, who had about 35,000 left behind, looked pained and went into the tank.
After about two minutes, he peered across the dealer trying to get a look at his opponent, who remained stoic throughout. Coelho lent back in his chair, clasped his hands behind his head, and suddenly made the call.
Worthington-Leese tabled A♠8♥ for ace-high, having missed his flopped straight draw and turned nut flush draw, while Coelho had 7♠7♣ for third pair sevens, sending him the double-up and leaving the Brit with crumbs, which was reduced to nothing not much later.
