Sissou Triples While Zhang Busts
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Three ways to the 10♣9♥2♣ flop, Nick Sissou was all-in out of the small blind and earned calls from Ahmed Karrim in the hijack as well as Tony Zhang on the button. Karrim bet the 6♠ turn for 19,000 and Zhang called for nearly two thirds of his remaining stack.
That led them to the Q♣ river on which Karrim bet another 10,000. Zhang was covered by that and called all-in to get shown 9♦9♣ for a set by Karrim. Zhang knuckled the table in defeat and mucked his cards but Sissou showed his J♣6♣ for a rivered flush to triple up in the main pot.
