Mendoza Strikes Out on Third Bullet

Level 2: 100 / 200 ante: 200
Raquel Mendoza

Filipina Raquel Mendoza is on her third buy-in and limps in from the +2 position only to get raised in the SB by Germ de Haas of the Netherlands to 700. Mendoza makes the call.


The flop is 5 4 J as de Haas CBets for 600. Mendoza min-raises it to 1,200 and is called. The turn is the 2 as this time Mendoza grabs the betting lead for 4,000. De Haas raises all-in and gets snap called by the Filipina for the rest of her newly acquired stack of 23,600.


De Haas tables A 3 for a wheel straight on the turn while Mendoza is drawing dead holding Q Q . The river card makes Mendoza’s strike out official as the 8 shows up.


It remains to be seen if a fourth bullet is in the cards for the Filipina.
