Tasyurek Checks Back Trips, Simon Folds Two Pair
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Marc Foggin opened to 100,000 in the cutoff and received three calls, including Halil Tasyurek on the button, Jose Gonzalez Sanchez in the small blind, and big blind [Removed:553].
The flop came A♠K♣J♠ and action checked to Tasyurek who bet 100,000. Only Gonzalez Sanchez and Simon called as Foggin gave up 6♠6♦.
Gonzalez Sanchez led out for 450,000 on the 2♥ turn and Simon tanked for a moment before laying down two pair with K♥J♦. Tasyurek, though, called to see the A♥ river.
Gonzalez Sanchez then checked and Tasyurek paused for nearly a minute before checking back. Gonzalez Sanchez showed A♣9♣ for trip aces, but Tasyurek had A♦Q♠ to win the pot with his queen-kicker.
