Thibaut Triple Barrels and Klein Takes the Gift
Following a middle position open-raise, Moussa Thibaut three-bet to 7,000 from the next seat across, Morten Klein called in late position, and the original raiser folded.
The flop came K♣J♦7♦ and Thibaut continued for 11,000, which Klein called. The turn was the K♥ and Thibaut made it 22,000 to go, which Klein quickly called again.
The river was the J♥ and Thibaut took a moment before pushing all in for around 50,000-60,000 chips. Klein didn't need any time to think before making the call.
Thibaut stood up instantly as he turned over A♦5♦ for a busted flush draw that he'd turned into a bluff. Klein had A♥K♠ for a full house, kings full of jacks to win the pot. He stared in disbelief as the chips were pushed over to him.
"A gift," said a neutral player.
"What a crazy hand," said Klein as he added to his stack, which he'd built into huge towers of chips that equated to around 300,000.
