Shimizu Fills Up
Level 21
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Nozomu Shimizu raised from the hijack with 8♠7♠ and was just called by Daniel Idema in the big blind with K♥K♦.
Idema then check-raised a bet from Shimizu on the 8♦5♠3♣ flop and Shimizu called.
The 8♣ turn gave Shimizu trips, and he raised a bet from Idema. Undeterred, Idema re-raised, and Shimizu called.
The 5♦ completed the board and Idema bet. Shimizu raised and Idema let his hand go — conceding the pot to Shimizu, who graciously showed an eight as he scooped the pot.
