Action Turn Results in a Bloodbath
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Picking up the action on the turn with the board reading Q♠10♠2♣10♣, a pot of around 15,000 was already created between three players. On the turn, John Arne Riise found himself at risk for around 9,000 and was up against German Morte who had around 12,000. The big stack at the table had both players covered and all three hands were tabled.
John Arne Riise: 10♥8♦
German Morte: 2♥2♦
Opponent: 10♦9♦
Morte flopped a set of deuces which turned into a full house on the turn. The turn also gave both of his opponents trip tens and were still looking to improve on the river. The river was the 4♦ and Morte held on to eliminate Riise and emerge as the early chip leader.
