Botez Chips Up with Trips
Level 2
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
In a five-way turn of 3♠2♠2♣9♥, Dongwuk Moon fired 17,000 from the small blind into the pot of 39,000. Both Alexandra Botez on his left and Jean-Noel Thorel made the call while the other two players mucked their hands.
The K♣ completed the board on the river and Moon slowed down with a check before Botez splashed 55,000 across the line. Thorel tossed in a call before Moon mucked his hand.
Botez rolled J♦2♦, for trip deuces on the flop and Thorel slid his cards face down toward the dealer.
