Steven Off to a Good Start
Level 1
: 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Tsugunari Toma raised to 2,000 in the hijack, Brandon Steven flatted in the cutoff, and Sorel Mizzi three-bet to 12,500 out of the small blind. Toma got out of the way and Steven called.
The flop came 4♣4♠3♣, Mizzi continued with a bet of 8,000 and Steven made the call.
On the 8♣ turn, Mizzi checked and Steven bet 7,000, prompting Mizzi to quickly toss his cards into the muck.
"Flopped a full house," said Steven as he dragged in the pot, which was his first hand of the tournament.
