Timothy Adams Spikes a Bullet, Sends Nick Petrangelo Out
Nick Petrangelo opened and Timothy Adams three-bet to 15,500. Petrangelo four-bet to around 50,000 and Adams five-bet shoved. Petrangelo called his 136,500 into the middle and the two turned over their cards.
Nick Petrangelo: [kskd]
Timothy Adams: [ahkc]
The flop came down [th8h7s] and Petrangelo’s kings were very much in the lead. A [4s] turn left just one more card for Adams to find a bullet but his chances were slim.
