: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Pieter Aerts and Sirzat Hissou were on a turn of 7♣3♠J♥J♦. Aerts checked from the big blind, after which Hissou added 11,000 chips to the pot of 25,500 in the hijack.
Aerts made the call and the J♣ river brought trips on the board. Aerts checked once more, resulting in a 32,000 bet from Hissou. Aerts tanked for a bit before flicking in the call and Hissou instantly mucked his hand.
