Asmolov Checks Back Trips
Level 18
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Giuliano Bendinelli raised to 32,000 in the hijack with Timofey Asmolov calling on the button, and Max Schoch defending his big blind.
Schoch checked the K♠J♥J♠ flop and Bendinelli fired out a bet of 30,000. Asmolov called and Schoch folded.
The A♦ turn and 6♥ river checked through for Bendinelli to reveal K♣Q♣ for a pair of kings. Asmolov had that beat with J♦9♦ for trips on the flop and the pot went over to him.
