Coyle Cracks Kings
Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
James Coyle limped in the hijack and Paul Taskalos raised to 3,200 in the big blind. Coyle made the call.
The flop came 7♣7♥3♥, Taskalos bet 5,500, and Coyle called, bringing the 6♥ turn. Taskalos bet 10,000 and Coyle called again.
On the 5♦ river, Taskalos bet 15,000 and Coyle moved all in for 41,300 total to put Taskalos at risk. Taskalos went into the tank, eventually tossing his last 20,000 into the middle.
When the cards were tabled, Taskalos saw the bad news that his pocket kings had been cracked by the A♥7♠ of Coyle, who flopped trips.
