Noori Gets Some Back, Takes Out Pezzullo
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
A few hands after losing the massive pot to Abdullah Turan, Zaid Noori was in the small blind and called a pre-flop shove of around 65,000 from Nicola Pezzullo in the hijack.
Nicola Pezzullo: 9?9?
Zaid Noori: Q?Q?
Noori had picked up another strong hand, but this time he was ahead with his queens and Pezzullo needed help. None arrived on the J?3?6?Q?5? board as Noori turned a set to win the pot and send Pezzullo out just ten spots off the money.
