Krpan Falls to Ausmus

Ryan Lashmar

Level 10 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Jeremy Ausmus opened to 16,000 from middle position, and he received calls from John Krpan in the cutoff, Landon Tice in the small blind, and Shannon Shorr in the big blind.

The flop came A♦A♠3♠, and action checked around to Ausmus who fired a 15,000 continuation bet. Only Krpan called.

Ausmus bet 35,000 on the Q♦ turn, and Krpan shoved for around 140,000. Ausmus called with a covering stack to put him at risk.

John Krpan: 8♠8♥ All in
Jeremy Ausmus: A♣10♥

Krpan was drawing to just two outs against Ausmus' trips. The 5♦ river changed nothing for either player, and Ausmus took the pot while Krpan was sent to the rail.
