Fortini Flops Trip to Stay Alive
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
A player in the cutoff opened the hand to 425,000. In response Taylor Fortini, on the button, three-bet jammed for 2,800,000. The action came back around to the cutoff who, after much deliberation, made the call.
Taylor Fortini: J?9?
Cutoff: A?Q?
The board ran out 7?9?9?10?4?. Flopped trips for Fortini afforded him a lucky escape as he doubled up leaving his opponent with fumes.
