Level 11 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

Fabrice Soulier raised to 3,200 from the early position and was called by Adriano Torregrasso in the cutoff, Andreas Nordam on the button, and Ion Stanica in the big blind.

The flop came {2-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, both Stanica and Soulier checked. Torregrasso bet 7,000, Nordam raised to 15,000 and both Stanica and Soulier folded. Torregrasso three-bet shoved and Nordam asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Torregrasso had 44,100 behind. Nordam considered it for a while and then made the call.

Adriano Torregrasso: {4-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}
Andreas Nordam: {a-Spades}{j-Hearts}

Torregrasso had flopped a set while Nordam had a gutshot to a wheel.

The turn brought them the {3-Hearts} for Nordam to hit the wheel indeed but the river completed the board with the {4-Clubs} for Torregrasso to improve to quads to stay alive and double up.
