Valverde Straightens Out Sparagana
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of 8?J?A?10? and around 450,000 in the middle, Jordan Sparagana checked from the small blind and Fernando Valverde bet 205,000 from the cutoff. Sparagana made the call.
On the A? river Sparagana checked. Valverde went into the tank for a few minutes before checking behind.
Sparagana had two pair with Q?10? but Valverde had him beat with K?Q? for a Broadway straight to take the pot.
