Troha Flops Trips
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Matthew Smith raised 60,000 in an early position and Sean Troha defended the big blind.
The dealer spread a flop of K?8?8?, and Troha check-called a bet of 50,000.
The J? hit the turn, and Troha checked before Smith fired another shell of 125,000. Troha made the call.
When the A? completed the board, Troha checked and Smith quickly checked back. Smith showed A?K?Q?J? and Troha scooped the pot when he tabled Q?8?5?2? for trip eights.
