Sabatini Gets Paid After Flopping Trips
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
It was raised to 700 on the button by Mattia Sabatini. Ingus Arajs made it 2,500 in the small blind and Sabatini called.
The flop came 8♣5♠8♥, which was checked by Arajs. The Latvian then called Sabatini's bet of 1,300 to take it to the turn.
It came the K♥ and the action followed the same pattern, as Arajs check-called Sabatini's 3,500 raise.
Once again, the river went check - bet - call, with Sabatini betting 11,000 as the Q♠ landed. Sabatini showed trips with A♠8♦ and Arjus, left with a short stack, mucked his hand.
