Golubev Gets Tricky With an Ace
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Andrey Golubev opened to 1,600 from the cutoff and was called by Bekim Murtezi in the small blind and the player in the big blind.
Action checked through on the 4♥5♣A♠ flop and 6♥ turn; however, Golubev bet 2,500 after being checked to a third time on the A♦ river.
Murtezi folded, but the player in the big blind looked Golubev up, who tabled A♥J♥ for trip aces. His opponent couldn't beat it and mucked — conceding the pot to Golubev.
