Thomas Takes Down Another

Barney Thomas has just taken another big pot. After a 175 under-the-gun pre-flop raise on the button, he called a 300 bet on a flop of {6-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}.

The turn brought the {8-Clubs} and he led out for 750 after his opponent checked. His opponent quickly called and then checked the {5-Clubs} that landed on the river. Thomas fired for 1,350 this time and his opponent eventually made the call after going into the tank for several minutes.

Thomas tabled {A-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for a turn set of trips, and as his opponent mucked his cards Thomas raked in the pot, which was enough to send him up over 9,000 in chips.
