Choi Starts Well to Take from Petrangelo

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On a three-way flop of {A-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, Nick Petrangelo checked out of the small blind as did Timothy Adams in the big blind. Stanley Choi bet 2,500 and Petrangelo check-raised to 8,000. This got Adams out of the way, but Choi reraised to 27,500 and picked up a call by Petrangelo.

Both players then ended up checking down the {5-Hearts} turn and the {4-Diamonds} river. Petrangelo showed {A-Diamonds}{2-Spades} for flopped two pair that were counterfeited on the river, and Choi claimed the pot with {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a busted nut flush draw and the better kicker.
