Alves Rivers a Straight against Kitai's Trips
Level 23
: Blinds 7,000/14,000, 14,000 ante
On the feature table, Sandro Alves in the cutoff opened to 24,000 with K♦J♦ and Winamax Team Pro Davidi Kitai just called from the big blind with A♦Q♣.
Kitai was lucky enough to hit trips on the Q♥9♣Q♠ flop that both players checked. He started to get some value on the K♣ turn by betting 18,000. Alves called.
The 10♣ river completed Alves' straight, so he went into the tank after Kitai bet 45,000. He preferred to call and scooped the pot.
