Level 3 : Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Joe Laming
Joe Laming

Action was caught on the river and plenty of chips were in the middle. Alex Peffly and Joe Laming had both committed their remaining stacks on the {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{a-Spades} board.

Peffly turned over {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for a straight, but Laming revealed {3-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} for a flopped full house. Peffly covered Laming by just 1,400 chips, and his short stack was gone shortly after before re-entering the tournament.
