Betting war, Leonarez doubled up by Gopez


On a board of 9 5 6, Jessie Leonarez faced off against Edilberto Gopez and took the initiative to bet 700. Gopez wanted it to cost more so he raised to 1700. Leonarez had the same idea and so he three-bet to 3700. Gopez decided to end the raise war and called. At the turn of 3, Leonarez wasted no time betting and shoved his 14,500 in the middle. Gopez tanked but felt he was ahead and called. Leonarez showed 8 for a straight against Gopez’s 7 7 pair. The river blanked, 2, and Leonarez doubled up to 38k while Gopez fell to 32k.
