Metaal Makes the Call

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Thomas Coan opened to 2,500 and was then three-bet to 7,200 by Govert Metaal to his left. Coan made the call and the two went to a flop of 65A.

Both players then decided to check through the turn 7 and went to the river A, where Coan led out for 10,000.

After pausing for just a second, Metaal made the call. Coan tabled QQ for a big two-pair but Metaal flipped over A9 for trip aces to win the pot.
