Overton Can't Le Down Trips
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
In a heads-up pot on a board of K♥8♥J♠J♥10♥, Aaron Overton checked and Tony Le bet 300,000 with around that already in the middle.
"How can I fold this hand?" Overton said before calling for most of his stack.
Le could only show A♠10♠ and Overton turned over Q♠J♣ to win the pot with trips.
Before the next hand, Japan's Yuta Mutsuura told the table that it was his first time in America.
"It's been a pretty good start," quipped John Petro to bring laughs from the table.
