Nacho Barbero: XxXx / 9♦2♥Q♣7♣ / Xx
Action picked up on fifth as Adam led with the ace up and both opponents called.
On sixth, Adam led again, Barbero raised, Hyman cold-called, and Adam came along as well.
It checked to Barbero on seventh, who bet, Hyman called, and Adam frustratingly folded. Barbero revealed Q♠Q♥5♦ in the hole for trip queens, and Hyman flashed two aces in the hole as he mucked.
"I'm playing great today," Barbero proudly announced as he stacked his newfound chips.
"I thought you were a hold'em guy," Hyman jokingly replied, "I played H.O.R.S.E. with you the other day, and I know this isn't your core competency."
