Level 8
: 400/800, 800 ante
A player raised to 3,000 from early position, and Tom Hammers called, leaving himself 1,600 behind. Melissa Bryne called next to act, and Austin Schaal made the call from the cutoff.
Action checked to Hammers on a 
flop, and he put his last 1,600 in the pot. Bryne folded, while Schaal and the early-position player called.
Both live players checked the 
turn, and the early-position player check-called a bet of 4,000 from Schaal on the 
river. Schaal turned over 
, besting the 
of the early-position player, while Hammers showed the 
for inferior trips, telling Schaal, "Nice hand, bud," before leaving the tournament area.
