Yarbrough Makes a Big Call, Lindquist Triples
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Around 800,000 was already in the pot as Nate Lindquist was all in from early position, while Thomas Yarbrough in the small blind and an opponent in the cutoff went to a flop of 2♣2♥3♦. Yarbrough then bet 165,000, and his opponent called.
Yarbrough checked the 5♠ turn, and his opponent moved all in. Yarbrough tanked for several minutes before calling for 875,000, turning over 10♦10♥. His opponent could only show 8♥8♦, while Lindquist had A♣2♠ for trips. The river was the A♥ and Lindquist took the main pot to triple up, while Yarbrough took the massive side pot to leave his opponent with just one 5,000 chip.
