Stein Takes Out Two

Level 1 : Blinds 300/500, 500 ante

Samuel Stein raised in early position, which was called by Jose Scarano, one seat to his left and Roussos Koliakoudakis in the small blind. Lautaro Guerra then three-bet to 9,000 from the big blind, which all three of his opponents called.

The action checked to Scarano on the 693 flop, who bet 12,000. Koliakoudakis folded, but Guerra check-raised to 72,000. Stein then three-bet all in, putting his 144,800 into the pot. Scarano also moved all in, for 140,000, before Guerra moved his 144,600 in as well.

Jose Scarano: 6654 All in
Lautaro Guerra: AA109 All in
Samuel Stein: 8754

Stein took the lead on the 7 turn, hitting a straight, and stayed out in front on the 10 river, improving to a flush and eliminating two in the process.
