Trickett Is Under The Weather

Over in the Pavilion, poor Sam Trickett can hardly speak due a cold he is carrying. But despite his lack of voice he is still amassing chips as this following hand demonstrates.

Trickett was seated in the big blind, facing a barrage of limpers, when he raised to 200. The player under the gun made the call as did one more player, and the three of them headed to the flop.

Flop: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs}

Trickett bet 400, the player under the gun raised to 1,000, the third player in the hand folded and Trickett made the call.

Turn: {7-Hearts}

Checkity-check

River: {9-Spades}

Trickett made a bet of 2,000 and his opponent mucked his hand.
