Ferreira Fights Off the Bubble
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
On the first hand of hand-for-hand play, Pavlo Veksler raised to 30,000 under the gun. Mauro Ferreira three-bet all in for 135,000.
Veksler made the call.
Ferreira was in trouble on the flop Q♦8♦3♥, with Veksler hitting a pair of queens. But the turn-river combination of K♦K♥ gave Ferreira trip kings and more life.
