Ponakovs Runs Into Trips
Level 19
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
"FiletOFish" raised to 10,000 on the button and Aleksejs "APonakov" Ponakovs called in the small blind.
Both players checked the 9?5?3? flop before Ponakov led out for 10,000 on the 3? turn. "FiletOFish" then raised to 25,000 and Ponakovs called.
Ponakovs again bet on the 9? river, this time for 30,000, and "FiletOFish" called. Ponakovs had 7?7?, but "FiletOFish" showed A?3? for threes full of nines to win the pot.
