Farrelly's Fives Take It Down
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
James Farrelly raised to 4,500 in middle position and was called by Daniel Lim in the cutoff, Nicholas Verderamo in the small blind, and Matthew Riebel in the big blind.
The flop of 6♣10♣2♣ checked through to the 2♥ turn where it checked to Farrelly. He bet 7,500 and only Riebel called.
The K♠ river went check-check, and Farrelly tabled the winner with 5♣5♥ for two pair, fives and deuces, besting the 3♥3♦ of Riebel.
