Trips For Baxter

Billy Baxter in action

Catching the action on the flop of {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, Billy Baxter led out for a bet of 600 and found a caller.

The turn was the {K-Spades} and Baxter fired again, this time for 1,600, which prompted a fold from his opponent. Baxter tabled his {A-Spades}{Q-Spades} to rake in the pot and move to just over 33,000 in chips.

With seven bracelets to his name, Baxter will be looking to add another here to break the drought since 2002 when he took down the $1,500 Razz event.
