Jattin Makes Trips to Take Korzinin's Stack

Level 6 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Vladimir Korzinin
Vladimir Korzinin

Vladimir Korzinin raised to 5,000 from middle position, Farid Jattin called in the small blind and the big blind came along.

The flop came 676 and action checked to Korzinin, who made a continuation bet of 8,000. Jattin check-raised to 21,000 and Korznin called.

The turn was the 2 and Jattin bet 29,000, which Korzinin called. The river was the 4 and Jattin once again pushed his chips into the middle, moments after putting Marius Kudzmanas to the test in a previous hand.

Korzinin weighed it up and then made the call for all of his chips. Jattin showed 65 for trip sixes.

"I was still hoping you were bluffing," said Korzinin as he mucked his cards with a smile. He got up and shook his opponent's hand before leaving the table, saying "I'll be back" and implying that he'd be refiring in the event.
