Kevin Saul

In a three-bet pot, Kevin Saul was first to act from the blinds against Jeremiah Fitzpatrick, who had opened from early position.

On the {Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{6-Spades} flop, Saul continued with a bet of 55,000, and Fitzpatrick called. The {2-Clubs} on the turn was checked by both players. Saul checked the {Q-Spades} on the river to Fitzpatrick, who bet 125,000. Saul took over three minutes before paying off the bet.

Fitzpatrick showed {Q-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for trip queens, and Saul flung his hand into the muck.
