Pearson Chips Up With Quads
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Trung Tran was first to act and raised to 12,000. It folded to Matthew Pearson in the big blind, who opted to defend.
Tran fired bets of 15,000 on the Q♥9♠Q♦ flop and 31,000 on the 2♣ turn, both times being check-called by Pearson.
The duo then checked the Q♣ river to showdown. Tran tabled 9♦8♥ for a full house, but it was not enough against the K♠Q♠ of Pearson, who had slow-played his trips and made four of a kind on the river.
