Raymond Sets The Trap on River
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
In a heads-up pot of 13,500 on a flop showing 
, Alexandre Raymond checked from the big blind to Sebastian Gahl in the cutoff who bet out 3,000. Raymond put in a check-raise to 8,500, and without much thought, Gahl made the call.
The 
hit the turn and Raymond kept up the aggression with a bet of 13,500, which Gahl again called. The 
completed the board and Raymond decided on a check over to Gahl who slid forward a bet of 40,000. Raymond called as soon as the bet passed the line and the cards were shown.
Gahl tabled 
for flopped trips but it was no good when Raymond opened 
for a better kicker to take down the sizable pot.
