Christopherson Catches some Cards

Kirk Brown

Level 24 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Antonin Teisseire opened to 80,000 under-the-gun and was called by Matthew Parry from the cutoff and Ryan Christopherson defended from the big blind.

The flop came out 6?6?2? and action checked to Parry who bet 110,000. Then Christopherson check-raised the pot, which resulted in a hasty fold from Teisseire and a jam from big stack Parry.

Ryan Christopherson made the call, putting himself at risk of elimination and the cards were tabled

Ryan Christopherson: A?6?9?10?
Matthew Parry: Q?Q?6?5?

Both players had trip sixes, but Christopherson was in the lead with his ace-kicker and the turn 10? further improved him to a full house. The river J? could not do it for Parry and the pot was awarded to Ryan Christopherson for the double-up.
