Adam Friedman Flips Out Javier Gomez

Krisztian Torok raises to 8,000 and Adam Friedman calls, as does Vanluyen Tran. Javier Gomez jams for 123,500 and Torok folds, Friedman jams and Tran reluctantly folds.
Gomez flops with A♥ Q♥ against the T♠T♥ of Friedman, who hits top set on the T♦ 5♠4♥ flop. The 7♠turn seals Gomez's fate and the 5♥ river only improves Friedman to tens full.

Krisztian Torok Gets Paid In Full
On a flop T♣ 6♦ Q♦ , Yu Lin bets 6000 onto a pot of 12,500 and Krisztian Torok check calls to the turn 9♠. Lin fires another 20,000 and again Torok check-calls. On the river J♠, Torok moves it all in for 79,000, Lin agonizes then finally finds reason to call.
Torok opens up K♠Q♣ top pair and wins the pot over Lin's J♣ T♦ .
