Nouira Loves a Chop Pot
Niveau 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Chipleader Vicente Delgado raised to 20,000 from under the gun and faced a three-bet to 75,000 from Maher Nouira in the small blind. Delgado put in the extra chips for a call and the two went off to a flop of 6♦2♣A♣.
Nouira made a small bet of 40,000 and Delgado called. On the 2♥ turn, Nouira increased his sizing to 75,000 but again Delgado called.
The 2♦ river put a third deuce on the board and saw Nouira slow down with a check. Delgado then put his opponent all in for 250,000 chips and Nouira went into the tank.
After spending several time bank extensions, he emerged with a call. Delgado showed K♣Q♣ for trip deuces with ace-king as kicker, and Nouira tabled K♥9♥ for the same hand. They chopped the pot, much to the relief of Nouira.
