Nacho Barbero Gets Lucky on the Turn, Unlucky on the River
When we arrived, Jose “Nacho” Barbero in the big blind was seen checking on the flop of [Kc8s6s]. The cutoff bet 210,000 and Barbero shoved for 1,845,000. The cutoff called.
Nacho Barbero: [Js4s]
Cutoff: [KsQc]
“That’s a good king to have,” table mate Jacob Daniels muttered under his breath standing next to us.
The [Ts] on the turn put Barbero in front but the [3s] on the river gave his opponent the better hand.
“That’s what I said,” Daniels whispered to us, “that’s a good king to have.”
