Trinh to the Top

Lam Trinh raised to 1,700 under the gun and was called by a player in middle position, Nacho Barbero on the button, and the player in the big blind.

The flop ran out {8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and the big blind player checked. Trinh bet 4,600 and forced a fold from the middle position player. Nacho made the call, but the big blind player immediately went all in for 6,200 more. Trinh thought for a few moments and made the call, as did Nacho.

The {8-Spades} hit the turn and Trinh bet 30,000, enough to put Nacho all in. Barbero folded and the big blind revealed {J-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a straight.

Trinh was well behind with {A-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}, but hit the {10-Clubs} on the river to make a full house and eliminate his opponent. He is up to 175,000 and quite possibly the chip leader heading into the next break.
