Erick Torres

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

A multi-way pot broke out after Justin Kindred raised to 4,500 from early position and was called by David Fernandez on the button, Georgios Sotiropoulos in the small blind, and Jinwei Shao in the big blind.

The flop came 2♣6♦9♦, which led to three checks as the action went to Feranandez, who fired 7,500, which was called in one spot by Sotiropoulos.

The K♦ peeled off on the turn before Sotiropoulos checked. Fernandez was undeterred and fired 15,000 before Sotiropoulos folded.
