Timothy Banks Triples Up

Apr 19, 2015

The next hand after dropping down to little more than a big blind, Timothy Banks calls all in from the button for 2,000. Ross Lebo completes the small blind, and Nick Grippo raises from the big blind to 7,000. Lebo calls, and there is now 10,000 in the side pot.

Lebo checks in the dark before the flop comes Jspade3spade2spade, and Grippo bets 6,000. Lebo folds, and Grippo takes the side pot.

Banks turns over Kspade6club for a spade flush draw, and Grippo turns over Kdiamond8heart for king high. Banks needs to improve to stay alive.

The turn is the 7spade, the river is the 10diamond, and Banks turns a king-high spade flush to win the pot and more than triple up.

Timothy Banks  –  8,400  (4 bb)
Nick Grippo  –  71,000  (35 bb)
