Novotny Rivers Double Knockout
After some preflop action, Niculina Grasu went all in for her final 8,000 chips from the big blind and found no less than three callers in Safwane Bahri under the gun, Petr Novotny on the button, and Luca Moschitta in the small blind.
Moschitta then created a side pot when he bet 4,500 on the 9?5?9? flop. Bahri quickly folded but Novotny stuck around with a call.
On the Q? turn, Moschitta checked to Novotny, who made a bet of 5,000 in response. Moschitta then jammed all in for 18,800 and a swift call followed from Novotny, after which all three players revealed their holdings.
Niculina Grasu: 5?5?
Luca Moschitta: A?A?
Petr Novotny: Q?J?
Grasu flopped a full house and was looking to quadruple up, while Moschitta was a big favorite for the side pot. The Q? river, however, saw Novotny hit one of his two outs to scoop the pot.
His higher full house awarded him with a big stack of almost six figures, while both Grasu and Moschitta left the tournament in a state of disbelief.
