Thrift Hits Two-Outer Again to Take Chip Lead
An early position player limped in and Gil Levy completed in the small blind, while Robert Thrift raised to 7,600. The early position player then three-bet jammed a stack of 42,000 and Levy folded, while Thrift took a minute to think and asked the dealer to pull the 7,600 from the opponent's stack so he could calculate how much more it was to call.
The opponent was notably irritated by Thrift, who earlier doubled up by cracking the aces of Joey Burns after calling off with pocket fives, and asked the dealer to call the clock, despite the action only having been on Thrift for about a minute. Thrift then folded.
Just a few hands later, Thrift opened to 8,000 on the button and the same player called from the big blind. The action checked to Thrift on the flop of 
and he bet 16,000. The opponent check-raised all-in and Thrift quickly called.
Opponent: 
Robert Thrift: 
The opponent had out-flopped Thrift with a pair of nines and the 
on the turn didn't change things. But the river brought the 
to give Thrift a set and he jumped in the air in celebration, knocking over one of the many beers he's had beside him today in the process.
"Yeah baby! Let's f***ing go! Let's f***ing go!" he screamed as the opponent left the tournament area in disbelief.
