Everyone Has a Piece as Dezfooli Takes Three-Way Pot
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Seyed Dezfooli bet 3,000 from middle position on a flop of 10♠8♠7♣ and Mario Scalia called in the hijack, as did Martin Vittek in early position.
The turn was the A♦ and Vittek led out for 4,000. Both opponents called, and the 2♦ fell on the river. Vittek then bet 5,000, prompting Dezfooli and Scalia to call once more.
Vittek showed A♣9♦ for top pair, but Dezfolli turned over A♠7♠ for two pair. Scalia threw 10♥8♥ into the muck, and Dezfooli took the pot.
