Peppin Folds Tens and Then Wins with Kings
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Stephen Peppin raised to 25,000 in the cutoff and Mark Gusa three-bet jammed on the button for about 350,000 to put himself at risk. Peppin thought for a moment before folding pocket tens face up. Gusa showed pocket aces.
The next hand, Tim Stang raised to 30,000 in early position and Peppin three-bet to 65,000 in the hijack. Stang called and the two checked it down to the river on a board of Q♦A♣Q♠4♠5♣. Peppin tabled pocket kings and Stang mucked.
