Ugarte Falls to Peters with Aces Full
Eduardo Ugarte peeled his cards under the gun before announcing, "all in," for his remaining 81,000. Action folded to David Peters in the cutoff, who thought for some time before doing the same, with 141,000 in his stack. The rest of the table folded, and Peters found himself up against it.
Eduardo Ugarte: A♣A♦
David Peters: Q♣Q♥
The one thing Ugarte didn't want to see was a lady, but the window card was exactly that, bringing a reaction from the table. As if that wasn't horrifying enough for him, the full Q♠9♣Q♦ flop gave Peters quads, effectively crushing Ugarte's Main Event dreams.
The turn 3♦ sealed the deal, as a player at the table called, "Queen!" which was the only way in which Ugarte could stay alive. Unfortunately for the Spaniard, not only was the deck in working order, it was also a needler, as the A♠ was placed down, garnering further reactions from the table.
The runout saw Ugarte head home with nothing but a brutal bad beat story.
