Low Spikes Three Outer in Big Pot

Level 5 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Riccardo Trevisani limped in from under the gun before Tyng Low accidentally made it 7,000. Like Moreno earlier, Low had confused the black chips for 100 instead of 5,000.

Trevisani then jammed as the big stack and Low called off for 53,000 total.

Tyng Low: A9
Riccardo Trevisani: AK

Low paired up on the 10x9x3x flop and held out to dent Trevisani's chances following the 5x turn and 10x river.
