"Unfortunately for Rheem, his title defense ended before the third level of play was over. He got all his money in with a flopped set of threes that ran into Fish's nut straight, catapulting Fish to the chip lead." - This actually happened the other way around - with Rheem holding the straight and Fish filling up on the turn.
Martin Derbyshire from PokerListings here. I met Fatima Moreira de Melo at EPT Barcelona last week and did a quick interview which your readers can find on our site. She sounds quite motivated to turn herself into a good poker player. Olympic gold medalists are generally pretty competitive people and I think the poker world will be seeing a lot of Moreira de Melo in the near future.
