Nível 6 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Three players created a pot of about 75,000 on the Q♣9♣8♥10♦ turn, and both Nacho Barbero and Hasson Nashar checked to Ren Lin who fired a bet of 27,000. Barbero made the call, while Nashar got out of the way.

The 8♠ fell on the river, and Barbero checked once again. Lin shook his head as he said, "Ay, Ya, Ya, too much bluff, No future," and tapped the table.

Barbero instantly tabled Q♥Q♦ for the top full house to rake in the pot and Lin mucked his hand.

A few hands after he entered the tournament, Hassan Nashar found himself in the big blind after Timothy Adams opened to 4,500 from the button and was called by Nacho Barbero in the small blind.

Nashar opted for a three-bet of 17,000. Adams folded, but Barbero made the call to see a 6♦4♥2♠ flop that he checked. Nashar decided to go all in for 66,500 chips and Barbero eventually called.

Hassan Nashar: A♠K♣
Nacho Barbero: 3♥3♠

Initially, Barbero was in the lead with his pocket treys, but the 6♠ on the turn and the 4♦ on the river completed two bigger pair on the board. With Nashar having the best kicker, he claimed the pot and doubled up.
