Laura Wolkoff bet from under the gun on a flop of 9♦4♦10♦ and Corel Theuma called on the button.

Blinds: 1,000-2,000
Limits: 2,000-4,000

Four players went to the turn on a board of 4♥2♠7♥9♠ when Scott Tuttle bet from the button. Nicolas Milgrom called in the small blind, as did Brian Lieberman in the big blind and Nick Pupillo under the gun.

Lieberman showed 6♠2♦ for a pair of deuces, while Milgrom had J♠7♠ for a pair of sevens to win the pot. "Heart of a lion. Holy shit," tablemate Louis Hillman told him.
