Tamasyan More Than Triples

Level 8 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Boris Kolev raised to 5,000 from mid-position, Christian Rudolph called in the hijack. Garik Tamasyan shoved on the button for 22,000 and both Kolev and Rudolph called.

The flop came {q-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Hearts}, Kolev check-folded to the 23,000 bet of Rudolph to let them battle it out.

Garik Tamasyan: {7-Clubs}{5-Clubs}
Christian Rudolph: {q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

The turn was the {7-Diamonds} to give Tamasyan two pair.

The river completed the board with the {2-Diamonds} for Tamasyan to stay ahead and double up.
