Juanda Makes Trips To Score Pot
Level 3
: Blinds 0/0, 300 ante
With 3,500 in the middle on a board showing A?9?7?10?, John Juanda under the gun, the middle position player and the cutoff all checked to Dario Sammartino on the button who bet 2,700. Only Juanda made the call and the A? hit the river.
Juanda quickly checked, and after some thought, Sammartino checked back. Juanda tabled A?K? for trip aces and took down the pot when Sammartino mucked.
"I had pocket kings," said the middle position player who folded on the turn.
"You should have raised preflop, we could have got it in and I would've got lucky," replied Juanda while he collected the pot.
