Trip Kings for Nelson

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Five players each invested 250 to see a flop of {k-Diamonds}{k-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}. Both blinds checked, the under-the-gun player bet 600, and Max Chrisp folded from the hijack. Nikki Nelson, a traveling dealer by trade, then raised to 1,500 from the cutoff. The blinds both folded, the under-the-gun player called, and Chrisp folded to make it heads-up action to the {6-Hearts} turn.

The under-the-gun player check-called a bet of 1,500, and then both players checked the {2-Diamonds} river. Nelson tabled the {k-Clubs}{q-Clubs} for flopped trips, and it was good as her opponent sent his hand to the muck.
