Adam Lamers

Level 2 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Romano Pizzo opened to 500 in the hijack and was called by Hamid Rowshanaei on the button and Andrew Salami in the small blind. Beihao Wang shoved all in for his last 2,100 in the big blind and all three players called.

The flop fell K♥Q♠2♣ and the action checked around to the 2♥ on the turn. Pizzo was the first to take a stab at the pot with a bet of 3,500. Rowshanaei folded and Salami check-raised to 10,000. Pizzo called and the 7♦ landed on the river.

Salami moved all in on the river and Pizzo looked back at his cards before opting to fold. Salami turned over A♠2♠ for trip deuces which was enough to eliminate Wang and his A♣7♣.
