Reichard Takes from Belcher
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Connor Belcher raised 300,000 under the gun, and Joshua Reichard called.
The rest of the table folded to bring the flop, where the dealer fanned K♣K♥8♥. Belcher checked, and then Reichard bet 275,000, which Belcher called.
The turn saw 10♣ on the board. Belcher checked, resulting in Reichard betting a healthy 675,000. Belcher briefly paused, and then called.
The river, which produced 4♦, brought fireworks after Belcher checked yet again. Reichard sized up his bet to 2,360,000, which put Belcher in the tank.
After almost a minute elapsed, Belcher called only to see the bad news when Reichard tabled K♦Q♦ for trip kings.
Belcher mucked his hand and lost a good chunk of his chip stack.
