Trent Stuns Stein on the River

Level 6 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

Craig Trent bet 6,000 from middle position on a flop of 6♣3♦5♥ and Z Stein called in the big blind.

Trent then moved all in on the 8♠ turn, and Stein called for his last 20,000. He turned over K♥8♥ for top pair, while Trent could only show K♣J♣ for king-high. The river, though, brought the J♠ to give Trent a pair of jacks and send Stein to the rail.

Wenlong Zhang raised to 2,000 in early position before John Wilson moved all in for 18,200 in the cutoff. Arbri Dinaj then reshoved for 21,500 in the small blind, and Zhang called to put both opponents at risk.

John Wilson: K♥Q♥ All in
Arbri Dinaj: 10♥10♦ All in
Wenlong Zhang: A♣10♣

"You're ahead. It's hard to make a pair in poker," tablemate Robert Rothenberger said to Dinaj, but it proved easy for Zhang as he hit top pair on the A♥Q♠5♥ flop. The turn was the 9♠, while the 2♠ completed the board on the river to send both opponents to the rail.
