Lopes Fills Up
Level 5
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Sammy Salha opened to 2,500 in middle position and was called by Tri Lam in the hijack. Jaime Lopes came along in the big blind and checked on the 7♥2♠J♥ flop.
Salha continued for 6,600, which was called by both opponents. The dealer flipped over the Q♥ turn and Lopes led out by moving all in for 33,700.
Salha made a frustrated fold while Lam tossed in the call.
Jaime Lopes: Q♠J♣ 
Tri Lam: K♥5♥
Lam had turned a flush, leading the way against the Lopes, who held two pair. The Q♦ river saw Lopes improve to a full house, beating Lam's flush to double up.
