Manana Gets Caught and Then Bailed Out
Niveau 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action was picked up in a pot of roughly 500,000 on a board showing K♥8♦6♥7♦. Joao Manana moved all in from the big blind, covering the almost 500,000 left for his opponent in middle position, who went deep in the tank.
"If I fold you show?" asked the opponent while contemplating their options.
Manana didn't flinch, and eventually the middle position player made the call for their tournament life.
Middle Position: Q♠Q♣
Joao Manana: 9♥8♥
Manana had a combo draw and a pair but was behind the over-pair for his opponent. The river fell the Q♥ and Manana made a flush to score the pot and send his opponent to the exit.
