Blinds: 500,000/1,000,000
Jorge Buitimea and Marc Fiorentino were heads up in the blinds when the flop came [Jd][8d][3s]. Buitimea checked to Fiorentino, who fired five million. Buitimea check raised to ten million, and Fiorentino called to see the [4h] hit the turn.
Both players checked that card, and the river completed all the draws, coming the [Qd]. Buitimea didn’t take very long to shove all in, and Fiorentino looked at the river, checked his hand, let out a big sigh, and dropped a chip in for his tournament life.
Buitimea shook his head and rolled over [5s][5c], and Fiorentino ripped over [Ac][Qc] for a rivered pair of queens. The chips were counted down, and Fiorentino’s stack had over 26,000,000, giving him a massive double up, and a big lead in this three handed battle.
