Shipp Ships it With Full House
Picking action up on the flop with about 11,000 in the middle and a board of 10♦8♥4♥, Thomas Shipp checked in the big blind, as did Sung Keen in early position, and William Leffingwell in middle position, leading to a bet of 11,000 from Brad Ruben on the button.
Shipp called and Keen then moved all in for about 25,000. Leffingwell folded, but Ruben moved in for about 36,000 and Shipp was then in for less.
Thomas Shipp: 10♥10♠7♥6♣
Sung Keen: A♥5♣4♣3♥
Brad Ruben: Q♣J♠9♣6♥
Shipp was ahead with trip tens versus Keen's nut flush draw and Ruben's wrap.
The turn brought the 4♠, giving Keen trip fours to go with his flush draw, but also a full house for Ship, Keen drawing to the last four, while Ruben was drawing dead.
The river was the A♠, as Shipp's house held to earn him a sizeable pot, while leaving Ruben and Keen short.
Ruben would bust and rebuy shortly after, bringing a fresh 40,000 to a new table with just one level of registration left in the night.
