Boika’s Trips Best Bedell
Level 27
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Tom-Aksel Bedell opened from middle position with K♠9♠ and found a caller in Aliaksei Boika, who defended his big blind with A♦Q♠.
Both players checked through the J♣Q♦Q♣ flop.
Boika then took the lead on the 4♣ turn, betting 165,000, and Bedell made the call.
The river brought the 9♣, giving Bedell a pair, but Boika fired again for 60,000. Bedell called, only to see Boika table his trip queens to scoop the pot.
