That's One Way to Win a Flip

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

When we walked up to the table, Team PokerStars Online's Andre Coimbra had 2,500 chips out in front of him, so we must have missed another player opening. In any event, a third player, Luca Falaschi looked down at {10-Clubs} {10-Spades} in the big blind and shoved in. Coimbra made the call for his last 8,450 with {K-Spades} {Q-Clubs} , and the race was on.

The {7-Clubs} {J-Spades} {A-Diamonds} flop opened up another two outs for Coimbra to double, but the turn {5-Clubs} was a miss. He needed a ten, queen, or king to win the pot, and the river {10-Diamonds} fit those criteria rather nicely. Coimbra is strolling down Broadway, back up to about 18,500.
