Chrisanthopoulos Moving Up

[user67765]

Michael Chrisanthopoulos opened with a raise from middle position to 5,500, with Samuel Gerber making the call. Igor Banjac called off his last 4,400 in the big blind and the players went to a flop of {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

{Q-Clubs}

{Q-Spades}

.

The two live players checked and the {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

fell on the turn. Chrisanthopoulos checked and Gerber bet 7,000. Chrisanthopoulos then check-raised all in and Gerber called!

Gerber: {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

Banjac:

{Q-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

Chrisanthopoulos: {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{10-Diamonds}

While Gerber and Banjac had flopped trips, Chrisanthopoulos had spiked a ten on the turn to make a full house! The river bricked the {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

and Chrisanthopoulos more than doubles up, sending Banjac to the exit.
