Thomas Hofmann
Thomas Hofmann

Salvatore Camarda raised to 1,300 from mid-position and Thomas Hofmann three-bet to 4,000 from the lojack. Action folded to Paul Teoh in the big blind who four-bet to 11,800. Camarda considered his options but opted to fold while Hofmann decided to go along to see the flop.

The flop came {9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}, Teoh continued with a bet of 10,300 and Hofmann called.

The turn brought them the {j-Clubs} and Teoh shoved for Hofmann to snap-call with {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for the pair of nines and the flush draw. Teoh held {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} and got not help of the board on the river and was sent away to try again tomorrow.
