Truquens Goes Running Quads to Best Top Boat
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
It was recounted to PokerNews that Truquens open from early position to 12,000, before Benoit Grobocopatel slid in three-bet to 35,000 from the cutoff. Action folded back to Truquens, who slid in a call.
The Qx3x3x flop saw Truquens check it over to his opponent, who threw out a continuation-bet of 12,000. Truquens called, and the two saw a 5x on the turn.
Truquens checked it over for a second time, and Grobocopatel fired out yet another barrel of 35,000. Truquens, unfazed, check-raised to 105,000, and Grobocopatel made the call.
A 5x on the river saw Truquens move all in, and Grobocopatel snap-called. It was an absolutely insane cooler, as Truquens had backdoored quads with 5x5x and Grobocopatel's flopped boat with QxQx had to hit the muck.
