Chaoui Calls Flop Three-Bet, Makes Quads
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Arriving on a flop of 7♣5♦10♠, Xiaosheng Zheng made a bet of 5,500 from early position. Mehdi Chaoui then raised to 18,000 in the cutoff before Umberto Ruggeri bumped it up to 30,500 on the button.
Zheng quickly got out of the way but Chaoui called after spending a time bank. The 5♠ fell on the turn and saw Ruggeri size down to 12,000. Chaoui tossed in a quick call, after which the A♦ river went check-check.
Chaoui was first to show and tabled 5♥5♣ for quad fives. Ruggeri could not beat the nuts and swiftly added his cards to the muck as he saw the pot being shipped to Chaoui.
