In the first level of the tournament, Tim Gerwig opened the action from middle position and was called by Nadja Sutter, seated directly to his left. When the action reached Guido Pezzotta in the small blind, he three-bet to 1,200, and both of his opponents called.
The flop came J♥9♥J♣, and both Pezzotta and Gerwig checked. Sutter bet 1,300, and only Gerwig called.
Both players checked the 9♦ on the turn.
When the dealer revealed the J♦ on the river, completing a full house on the board, Gerwig led out with a bet of 2,500. Sutter, however, raised to 12,000, which was enough to take down the pot.
