Hu Coolers Nazari to the Rail
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
David Hu opened from early position, and Farbod Nazari defended from the big blind.
The flop came K♦7♦K♠. Nazari checked, Hu bet 30,000, Nazari clicked it to 60,000, and Hu called.
On the 8♠ turn, Nazari bet 150,000. Hu shoved and Nazari, who was covered with around 225,000 left, called.
Farbod Nazari: K♥J♥
David Hu: A♦K♣
Both players had flopped trips, but Nazari was far behind with the inferior kicker. Hu remained ahead on the 10♣ river to win the hand and eliminate Nazari.
