Trips Help Rezaei Surge Up the Chip Counts
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Heads-up to the turn on a board of K♦7♦8♠8♥ and with around 30,000 in the pot. Armin Rezaei was first to act from the big blind and fired out a bet of 24,000, which Jianming Luo called from the cutoff.
After the 5♠ appeared on the river, Rezaei bet 75,000, causing Luo to go into the tank. After deliberating for over a minute, Luo slammed in the call.
Luo was left shaking his head and with fewer chips in his stack after Rezaei revealed J♠8♦ for trips to win the pot.
