What will be probably go down as the hand of the night, three players just picked up premium hands and all the chips went in pre-flop.
Trevor Adams:
Danny Knafo:
Andre Piunno:
The dealer put out
on the flop and both Knafo and Piunno felt their hearts sink as Adams flops a set of kings. Low and behold, Knafo hits the
on the turn but of course was still behind Adams. All would change when the dealer peeled the
on the river and Andre Piunno screamed in jubilation as he started running around the next table, celebrating while in total disbelief that he just hit top set on the river after already having watched both of his opponents make a set. It was a “wow” moment for sure!
Playground does have a heart defibrillator on hand in the room, “just in case” during a moment like this.
Knafo’s stack was covered and he becomes the first casualty of the final table, exiting in ninth place for $1,480.

Ninth place: Danny Knafo, $1,480
