Kebe Flops Trips, Busts

Frank Visser

Level 3 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

Florian Duta raised once it folded to his small blind and Jimmy Kebe three-bet his big blind to 2,700. Duta made the call and the A?A?6? flop was dealt. Duta checked to Kebe who decided to go for an overbet of 8,200. Duta put in the same amount and the dealer put out a turn.

On the 4? Kebe put the rest of his chips in and Duta snap check-called to put the Frenchman at risk.

Jimmy Kebe: A?7?
Florian Duta: 6?6?

Kebe flopped trips but Duta had him crushed as he had flopped even better with a full house. Kebe needed to hit the last ace in the deck, a seven or a four to stay alive on this bullet. However, the Q? completed the board and Kebe was off to the reentry desk.
