Ryder Gets Lucky
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Richard Ryder was in position in a heads-up pot against Mason Vieth on a board of 9♠Q♣K♠Q♥.
Vieth checked on the turn and called a bet from Ryder. Vieth checked again on the 7♣ river and called another bet from Ryder, who showed A♦Q♠ for trips as Vieth mucked in frustration.
"Your heart must have been racing!" commented Harsheel Kothari.
"It was on the turn," said Ryder. "I got lucky on the turn."
