"Three Pair, Baby"

Level 25 : 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

David Benyamine min-raised to 160,000 from the cutoff and was called by Scotty Nguyen on the button and Ben Yu in the big blind. On the {A-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} flop, action checked to Nguyen and he bet 150,000. Only Yu called. The {4-Hearts} turn and {J-Spades} river were checked and Nguyen announced "three pair, baby" before turning over his {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. That ended up winning the pot as Yu mucked.

One hand later, Wolff limped the button and Yu raised the pot in the small blind for 240,000, Wolff called. Yu bet the {A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} flop for 225,000 and Wolff sent his cards into the muck.
