Micon Rises and Falls

Bryan Micon called a preflop raise of 1,700 and saw a flop of {3-Hearts} {J-Hearts} {4-Hearts}. He and his opponent checked the flop as the {7-Spades} landed on the turn. Micon's opponent check-called a bet of 2,200 and the {J-Diamonds} hit the river. Again Micon's opponent check-called, this time 2,625.

Micon tabled {A-Spades} {J-Clubs} for trips and chipped up to 61,500.

A few hands later, though, Micon suffered a setback. A shorter stack was all in with {K-Clubs} {K-Spades} against Micon's {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs}. The board ran out {Q-Hearts} {K-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {7-Clubs} as Micon's aces failed to hold up.

He is now sitting with 42,000.
