Trickett Gets Extra Push Before Dinner

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We caught the action with Sam Trickett having four bet all in Brett Shaffer. Shaffer decided to make the call and put his 75,000 chip stack at risk.

Trickett: {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}
Shaffer: {J-Hearts}{J-Spades}

Trickett was in great position to knock out Shaffer the hand before the dinner break and his lock on the hand got even stronger when the flop came {A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}. The turn {6-Spades} and river {3-Clubs} both bricked Shaffer's Jacks and Trickett was shipped the pot.

Still counting his chips as the players leave for dinner, Trickett is now around the 230,000 mark.
