Fleischmann Flushes Out Wolpert's Trips
Arthur Fleischmann, in the hijack, opened to 800 and was in business with three customers - Marc Wolpert on the button, Joseph Neiman in small blind and Michael Stembera in big.
All saw a flop of 4♦A♥5♦. After two taps on the table, Fleischmann continued with 1,200. Wolpert called but both blinds folded their hands.
Slowing down, Fleischmann checked the Q♦ turn prompting Wolpert to bet 2,000. Fleischmann called to see the last street. Once again, Fleischmann check-called Wolpert's bet of 6,000 on the river 4♠.
Wolpert showed 6♥4♥ for trips on the river but Fleischmann showed K♦8♦ for a flush on the turn.
The table erupted when the dealer almost mucked Fleischmann's hand to award the pot to Wolpert. But before any major damage could happen, the chips were pushed in the proper direction - towards Fleischmann's side.
