Albeck Shows Estanislau the Nuts
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Three-handed on a flop of K♣K♠K♥, Joao Estainslau bet 35,000 from the button and only small blind Samuel Albeck called.
The turn came the 7♣ and Estanislau bet another 60,000. Albeck again called and checked the 8♠ river.
Estanislau then checked back and Albeck showed him K♦4♥3♦3♥ for flopped quads.
"It's impossible. How can I check this river," Estanislau called out after the hand.
"Threes are also good," a tablemate joked with him.
