Baker Trips Up Drake

In a limped pot between the blinds, Jason Baker bet 45,000 at a {Q-Spades}{8-Spades}{4-Diamonds} flop. Sean Drake called to see the {7-Clubs} hit the turn and called another 75,000 from Baker.

When the {4-Hearts} hit the river, Baker really turned up the heat and fired 300,000. Drake went into the tank for about a minute before calling. Unfortunately for Drake, Baker tabled {6-Spades}{4-Spades} for trips. A dejected Drake shook his head and surrendered the pot to Baker.
