Lococo Drills the Turn to Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Piero Alioto raised to 30,000 in middle position, Alejandro Lococo moved all in for 185,000 in the hijack, and Alioto snap-called.
Alejandro Lococo: A?8?
Piero Alioto: A?K?
Lococo was dominated and at risk as the flop came Q?4?4?. The 8? fell on the turn to give Lococo two pair and the lead, while the river was the 5? and Lococo doubled up.
"Never in doubt," tablemate Boris Angelov said.
