Ireland Improves to Trips to Double

Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Anderson Ireland raised to 30,000 in middle position and only David Wang made the call in the hijack.
When the Q♠10♣7♥ flop hit the felt, Ireland bet 40,000 and Wang dropped a stack of greens for a maximum raise of the pot. Ireland had 120,000 total and quickly called.
Anderson Ireland: K♣10♥9♠8♣
David Wang: A♠J♠9♣8♦
"All of the blockers," said a tablemate as both hands were on their backs.
The 10♠ turn and 4♦ river improved Ireland to trip tens, which meant he was able to keep his seat.
