Watch Out for the Quick Sand

Dave Sands
Dave Sands

A player in middle position limped before Dave "Doc" Sands raised to 1,125 from the hijack seat. The cutoff and button both called as did the limper. The four of them saw a flop of {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and action checked to Sands. He whirled out a bet of 3,450 and the next player folded. The button called and the other player folded.

Action was now heads-up to the turn, which came the {2-Spades}. Both players checked to see the {8-Spades} trip up the board on the river. Sands checked and his opponent fired 8,000. Sands thought and made the call.

Sands held the {J-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and his opponent mucked the {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. Sands' full house was good and he improved to 67,000 in chips.
