Sofocleous Rivers Trips, Gets Value From Nurmuhammedov and Eliminates Eremia
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Niculae Eremia had shoved his stack of 5,200 into the middle preflop over an open, which both Parahat Nurmuhammedov and Christos Sofocleous called.
They went to a flop of K♥9♥5♠, which checked through to the 5♦ turn. Sofocleous fired 2,100, and Nurmuhammedov called.
A 9♠ landed on the river and again Sofocleous reached for chips, this time with a bet of 7,400. Nurmuhammedov looked to be in a tough spot and was indecisive for around a minute before he finally dropped in the call.
Sofocleous then showed A♦9♦ for trip nines, and Nurmuhammedov mucked. Eremia then flipped over his 6♥4♥, which sent him to the rail.
