Torelli Wins With Trips
Level 16
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
With the flop showing 8♣5♠8♥ Alec Torelli bet 11,000 from the button and was met by a check-raise to 37,000 by Jonathan Proudfoot out of the big blind. Torelli thought for a few moments, then made the call.
Proudfoot continued with a bet of 100,000 on the 4♣ turn. Torelli called.
The 3♠ dropped on the river and Proudfoot opted to check. Torelli checked back and showed 8♠7♠ for trip eights, which was good as Proudfoot mucked.
