Moreno Triples Up, Busting Afonso and Cracking Beyer's Kings
David Rivas Moreno raised from under the gun to 80,000 and Christophe Beyer reraised to 225,000. Patrick Afonso moved all in for 285,000 and both Moreno and Beyer called with Afonso covered.
The flop came 2♠10♥7♦. Moreno checked and Beyer pushed all in. Moreno quickly made the call. By this point, Afonso shook his head knowing that the action suggested he was already bust. Players flipped over their cards.
Patrick Afonso: A♣Q♥

Christophe Beyer: K♠K♣
Beyer had pocket kings, but Moreno had made a set of sevens on the flop. The turn came the 8♠ and the river was the 9♣. Moreno let out a neighing noise and the room erupted into laughter.
He tripled up his stack, busting Afonso and taking most of Beyer's stack in the process.
