Frey's Trips Good Enough On Four-Flushed Board
Level 3
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Andrew Lichtenberger raised to 4,000 from early position and was called in three spots — Thiago Nishijima (hijack seat), Jason Mercier (small blind), and Kyle Frey (big blind).
Mercier, Frey, and Lichtenberger checked on the 
flop, and Nishijima made a bet of 10,000. Mercier quickly released. Frey made the call, and Lichtenberger check-raised to 32,000. Both Nishijima and Frey called to push the pot near 115,000.
The 
on the turn was anything but a blank, but all three players checked. The 
on the river made for a four-flushed board, and again all three players checked.
Frey showed his 
for trip threes, and both Lichtenberger and Nishijima mucked.
