Ionel Wins With Trips
Level 1
: Blinds 1,000/1,000, 1,000 ante
Picking up the action on the 9♥7♠9♠ flop, Anton Ionel and Simon Lousky checked. The in-position player bet 2,000, Ionel called, then Lousky check-raised to 7,500. Ionel and Lousky called.
On the K♥ turn, Ionel checked and Lousky sized up a bet of 26,500. The in-position player folded and Ionel made the call. Both players then checked to showdown on the 8♥ river.
Lousky had 9♣4♣ for trip nines, but Ionel had 10♥9♦ for trips with a higher kicker to win an early pot.
