McEwen's River Raise Gets Paid Off
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Balakrishna Patur opened to 60,000 from middle position and picked up two callers in Preston McEwen on the button and Joshua Wang in the small blind.
On the J♣K♦3♠ flop, Wang checked, and Patur continued for 50,000. McEwen called while Wang got out of the way.
The K♣ turn paired the board and Patur fired another 50,000. Once again, McEwen called.
After the 5♦ completed the board, Patur stayed with the same sizing and bet 50,000 for a third time. This time, McEwen raised to 475,000. Patur confirmed the amount with the dealer before making the call.
McEwen tabled K♠Q♣ for trip kings. It was enough to win the pot as Patur quietly sent his cards into the muck, adding another healthy pot to McEwen's growing stack.
