Metaal Makes the Call
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Thomas Coan opened to 2,500 and was then three-bet to 7,200 by Govert Metaal to his left. Coan made the call and the two went to a flop of 6♦5♦A♥.
Both players then decided to check through the turn 7♠ and went to the river A♦, where Coan led out for 10,000.
After pausing for just a second, Metaal made the call. Coan tabled Q♠Q♦ for a big two-pair but Metaal flipped over A♣9♣ for trip aces to win the pot.
