Philipe Pizzari Pinto

The player in the cutoff raised to 2,000 and the button three-bet to 5,200. Philipe Pizzari Pinto called out of the big blind and the cutoff called as well.

The flop was AhQd10c and Pinto checked. The cutoff checked and the button moved all in for about 20,000. Pinto called and the original raiser folded.

Pinto flopped the nuts with KdJc and was in the lead against the button’s Qs10s.

The turn was the 2s and the river was the 6d. Pinto dragged the pot, eliminated a player, and became the first person to cross the 200,000-chip mark. He leads the field as dinner break nears.
