Murcia Blows Serrano Off Trips; Kashtiaray Doubles Off Skrbic on the River
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of Q♥4♣Q♣, Abraham Serrano bet 20,000 from the big blind and Remy Murcia called in the cutoff.
The turn was the 5♥ and Serrano bet 40,000. Murcia then raised to 150,000, sending Serrano into the tank.
He eventually flashed the Q♦ and tossed it into the muck. "Kicker," Serrano said.
"If you go all in, you win," Murcia told him as he took the pot.
At the same time at another table, Alireza Kashtiaray moved all in for around 80,000 from the big blind on a board of 2♠A♣6♠10♦ and Milos Skrbic called on the button.
Kashtiaray had K♥6♥ for a pair of sixes, while Skrbic had A♦9♦ for top pair. The river was the 6♣ and Kashtiaray hit trips to double up.
