Mullur’s Trip Jacks Restore His Stack
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
Samuel Mullur opened from the cutoff to 6,000, and Alexandros Theologis made the call from the big blind.
The flop came J♦5♣3♦, and Theologis check-called Mullur’s 4,500 bet.
On the J♠ turn, the action repeated, Theologis checked, Mullur bet 17,500, and Theologis called again.
The 2♣ river saw Theologis check once more, and Mullur shoved nearly all of his stack in, betting 66,000 and leaving just 500 behind. Theologis used a time bank card before calling, only to see Mullur reveal J♥K♣ for trip jacks. That was more than enough, as Theologis’ cards hit the muck and Mullur climbed back to a healthy stack.
