Irani Can't Best the Team Pro

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

Zal Irani opened for 1,600 from middle position and MSPT Team Pro Matt Alexander called from the hijack. The big blind came along as well and three players saw a flop of {8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{2-Spades}. The big blind checked, Irani continued for 2,200, and Alexander called. The big blind got out of the way and then both players checked the {10-Hearts} turn. When the {K-Clubs} completed the board on the river, Irani checked and Alexander bet 5,000. Irani tossed in a call but mucked as soon as Alexander rolled over the {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} for trips.

Meanwhile, MSPT Team Pro Kou Vang was eliminated from the tournament after running pocket kings into aces.
