Schwippert Cracks Two Sets to Triple
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Three-handed on a board of 5♦3♦2♦, Jan Eric Schwippert moved all in for 70,000 in the small blind and was called by Aleksei Savenkov under the gun and Marcin Baranski in early position.
The turn was the 4♥ and Savenkov bet 16,000. Baranski called to create a side pot, and both he and Savenkov checked down the K♦ river.
Savenkov showed 2♥2♣ for a set of deuces, Baranski had 3♠3♣ for a set of threes, but Schwippert turned over 6♠4♦ for a flopped straight that improved to a flush on the river to earn him a triple up.
"Four-high flush. Oh my God. Did you like the river?" tablemate Haoran Cai asked him after the hand.
"I liked the river, but I wanted to make a straight flush," Schwippert replied.
