Machuca Extracts from Kubo

Level 2: 100 / 200 ante: 200

Luis Machuca Jr

Luis Machuca, Jr. of the Philippines opens from the +1 position for 400and gets a call from the SB. In the BB, however, Japan’s Shinji Kubo 3-bets it to 800 and gets calls from both his opponents.

The flop comes J♥ 4♦ 7♥ as the player in the SB checks. Kubo continues for 1,200 as Machuca calls but the SB folds. It is Heads-Up to the turn that brings in the 8♠ . This time, Kubo checks and Machuca does the betting for 2,500. The Japanese player folds.
