Nuts for Nacho

[user196676]

The player under the gun opened the action with a raise to 2,000 and he received a call from the player in the small blind as well as Team PokerStars pro Nacho Barbero in the big blind.

The flop fell {A-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {9-Clubs} and all three players checked their option. Fourth street brought the {K-Clubs} and the small blind checked. Barbero, however, pushed out a bet of 4,100. The player under the gun called and the small blind made what looked to be a painful fold.

The {4-Spades} struck the river and Barbero checked. His opponent quickly checked behind and Barbero shook his head, tabling {j-Hearts} {10-Spades} for the nuts. His opponent shot his hand into the muck and Barbero was able to scoop the pot, although it seemed it was not as big of a pot as he would have liked it to be.
