Lococo Gets Value from Tsang
Level 7
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Elton Tsang opened to 25,000 from under the gun with 9♦9♣ and Michael Moncek called in the next seat with 4♦4♣ before Alejandro Lococo three-bet to 110,000 in the hijack with Q♥J♦. Only Tsang called.
Tsang checked on the flop of 8♥5♣J♥ and Lococo continued for 90,000. Tsang called.
Tsang checked again on the 4♠ turn, and Lococo checked back. Tsang checked once more on the 3♦ river, and Lococo bet 330,000. Tsang went deep in the tank and called before seeing the bad news — his pocket nines were beaten by Lococo's pair of jacks.
