Kirk Tripped Up by Reason

Level 25 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Action folded around to Ben Reason in the cutoff and he opened for 33,000. Tripp Kirk then three-bet to 76,000, Reason moved all in for 365,000 and Kirk snap-called.

"F***," Reason deadpanned before revealing the {A-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. He must have known he was behind and sure enough he was as Kirk tabled the {J-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. While Reason got it in bad, the {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{A-Clubs} flop gave him the lead with a pair of aces. The {4-Hearts} turn and {3-Spades} river failed to provide Kirk with a jack and he was left with 241,000.
