Maeda Trips Up Sitbon
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Akinobu Maeda had raised from the hijack and was called by Julien Sitbon on the button and Denis Vlasov in the big blind.
Maeda continued for 20,000 on the K?K?3? flop, seeing Sitbon call and Vlasov check-fold.
The 9? turn slowed down the Japanese player as he checked to Sitbon. Sitbon then fired 65,000, which Maeda called. The 5? river was subsequently checked down.
Maeda tabled K?6? for trip kings, winning the pot as Sitbon swiftly added his cards to the muck.
