Trips on the River for Obrien
Level 20
: Blinds 15,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The player in the cutoff raised to 50,000 and Blake Obrien defended in the big blind.
The flop came K♦A♥8♣ and Obrien check-called a bet of 40,000, bringing the 9♥ turn.
Obrien check-called again, this time for 150,000 and the K♥ fell on the river.
Obrien checked for a third time and the cutoff bet enough to put Obrien all in who had 290,000 behind.
Obrien thought for a moment before making the call, tabling K♣Q♠ for trip kings to best the Q♦J♥ of the cutoff.
