Hisey Triples on River; Tebben Hangs Head in Shame

Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The player in early position opened to 2,800 but was then immediately three-bet by Roger Bennett on his left to 7,000. Jeff Tebben in the cutoff called behind but then Jason Hisey moved all in from the small blind for 12,400. Action then folded back around to Bennett, who, after confirming this bet opened it back up, put in a cold five-bet to 55,000.

This brought the focus back to Tebben, who was clearly distraught.

"Ughh, I actually have a hand here, and if it was anyone else I would have raised it," He sighed as he tossed his cards into the muck, and the other two tabled their cards.

Jason Hisey: 9?9?
Roger Bennett: A?K?

"Yeah that was the best-case scenario," Tebben said and admitted that he folded pocket jacks.

Hisey was a favorite going into this classic flip with his pocket nines, but the flop of A?7?6? was not his friend as it gave Bennet top pair of aces.

Meanwhile, Tebben was patting himself on the back for making the fold, that is, until the J? came down on the turn that would have given him a set.

Then the miracle 9? appeared on the river to save Hisey by giving him a set of nines to take the pot for essentially a triple up to 37,000.

"That was your moment!" the table jokingly needled Tebben, who just sat there and shook his head.
