Tsouloftas Flops Trips, Lijo Bluff-Shoves River
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
A pot between Lander Lijo and Georgios Tsouloftas had already swelled to around 900,000 on a full board of 9♥Q♥9♠4♦8♣ when Lijo fired a huge bet of 775,000 on the river. Tsouloftas only had 575,000 behind and dumped all of his time-bank cards into the pot, which indicated he had a tough decision.
Surprisingly, Tsouloftas didn't actually need to use any of them as he shrugged his shoulders and quickly announced a call.
Lijo showed J♥5♥ for a missed flush draw, and Tsouloftas had trips with A♦9♣ to scoop the pot, which sent his stack toward the two-million mark.
