Dov Peterfreund
We were shocked to see Dov Peterfreund getting paid out for a min-cash, as a short while ago he had been up to 500,000 in chips. We hurried over to ask him what happened.

According to Peterfreund, Chino Rheem opened to 15,000 and Peterfreund three-bet to 30,000 on the button with X ADiamond K.

Rheem called and the flop came X AX 10X 4 with two diamonds. Rheem had checked in the dark and Peterfreund bet 25,000. Rheem check-raised to 100,000 and Peterfreund called.

The turn was the Diamond 5 giving Peterfreund a flush draw to go with his top pair. Rheem pushed all in for over 300,000. Peterfreund called, covering his opponent by around 30,000.

Rheem showed X AX 4 for a flopped two pair. The river was a blank and Peterfreund was left short, busting shortly thereafter.

Rheem now sits on a stack of 1.1m chips.
