Trips for Knaapinen

Level 4: 100/300
Entries: 137/146

An interesting hand just took place at the TV table on the stream as follows.

Aleksandr Naumov opened for 600 with Q Q from middle position and was called by Tarmo Tammel with Q 9 from the cutoff and 2017 Kings of Tallinn Main Event Champion Matias Knaapinen from the big blind with 10 9 .

The 10 10 4 flop was an interesting one with Naumov holding an overpair to the board, Tammel with a flush draw, and Knaapinen waking up with trip tens. Knaapinen checked before Naumov continued for 500. Tammel called before Knaapinen jacked it up to 2,000. Both Naumov and Tammel called before the 7 appeared on the turn.

Knaapinen fired out for 4,000 which was good enough for Naumov to fold his queens. Tammel came along for the ride with his flush draw only to brick the A river. Knaapinen bet 5,000 and was awarded the pot after Tammel folded.

Matias Knaapinen – 33,600
Tarmo Tammel – 27,400
Aleksandr Naumov – 23,000
