Ivanov Holds With Trips to Bust Two Players
Level 4
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Action was on the flop on a board of 6♠8♦8♠ and a bet was already out in the middle when Carlos Gabriel Valles Pons moved all in with a relatively short stack. Hristofor Ivanov isolated with the bigger stack and Michael Soumi also called all in. Players flipped their cards.
Michael Soumi: A♠4♠ 
Carlos Gabriel Valles Pons: 9♦7♣
Hristofor Ivanov: 9♥8♥
Soumi had a flush draw, Pons had a straight draw, and Ivanov had a made hand with trip eights.
The turn came the 7♥ and river the 2♥. The straight and flush both missed, so Ivanov held to win the pot and chip up to around 100,000.
Both Soumi and Pons were eliminated from the tournament.
