Cooler Hand Goes Birizdo's Way
From under the gun Istavan Birizdo opened the betting with a raise to 800 and it appeared that nobody wanted to play with him, that was until it was Jannick Wrang's turn to act on the button. He peeked at his cards and then three-bet to 2,450. Both blinds folded but Birizdo made the call.
The dealer burned a card before spreading out the flop. Birizdo checked then called a 2,100 bet from his opponent. The turn brought the into play and when Birizdo checked to Wrang the latter checked behind. Our river card was another ten, this one the and Birizdo lead into his opponent with a bet of 2,600. Wrang double checked his cards, discovered he was holding and made the call.
Unfortunately for him he had hit trips on the river just as the of his opponent had improved to a full house.
