Niveau 11 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Hal Rotholz: Ax6x4x / 5x10x8xQx
Roy Thung: Jx7x2x / Ax5x5x9x
Yingui Li: XxXx / 8x4x7x8x / Xx

Hal Rotholz tangled in a three-way pot with Roy Thung and Yingui Li with one bet each going on from fourth to sixth street. They checked seventh street and Thung announced a nine, flipping over his jack-seven-deuce in the hole. Li mucked but Rotholz won the pot with an eight.

"I finally won a pot before losing two bigger ones before," Rotholz said as he racked up the chips. They were on the move since several players busted from other tables and their table broke. Li was among the casualties shortly after as he could not run up his two big bets afterwards.
