Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Josh Weiss limped under the gun. Lynn Lowery moved all in for 106,000 and Timo Kamphues three-bet all in for around 350,000 from the small blind. Weiss called, putting two players at risk.

Josh Weiss: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Lynn Lowery: {2-Spades}{2-Hearts}
Timo Kamphues: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

"Deuce 'em!" said Lowery as the flop came {2-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, giving Lowery a set of deuces. The turn was the {6-Hearts} and the river {9-Clubs}, meaning Lowery held to triple up, Kamphues was eliminated, and Weiss chipped up over 850,000 and is now the tournament chipleader.
