Rivas Traps Ellerman
Level 3
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Gary Ellerman opened from under-the-gun to 1,600 and then Nicholas Rivas three-bet to 3,600. The action folded back to Ellerman who called and the two went to a flop of 5?A?K?.
Both players checked and saw the turn come out the 6?, at which point Ellerman led out for 8,000 and Rivas responded by moving all in.
"Ahh, you trapped me!" Ellerman laughed as he tossed in his cards.
"Oh, you REALLY trapped me," he said as Rivas showed him A?K? for top two pair and raked in the pot.
