Threadgill Has Kicker Problems
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Four players headed to the 7♥7♠J♥ flop that saw Alex Foxen and Chaoxing Li check from the blinds. Felipe Campins bet 600 out of the cutoff, and was met by a raise to 3,600 by Julius Threadgill on the button. Foxen and Li folded, but Campins stuck around with a call.
Campins check-called a bet of 4,200 from Threadgill on the 2♦ turn to see the 2♠ fall on the river. Campins led out for 6,600, which Threadgill reluctantly called.
Campins showed the winner with A♦7♣6♥3♦ for trip sevens. Threadgill turned over the 7♦ to show he also had trips, but Campins won the pot because he had the higher kicker.
