Gomes Makes Trips

[user67765]

Alexandre Gomes raised it up to 240,000 from the button and Marco Johnson made the call in the big blind.

They took a flop of {5-Clubs}

and both players checked. The turn brought the {6-Clubs}

and Johnson checked to Gomes who fired out 325,000. Johnson made the call.

The river was the {K-Hearts}

and Johnson checked to Gomes who thought for several minutes before counting out 675,000 and sliding it into the middle. Johnson quickly called as Gomes turned over {7-Clubs}

for trips to take down the pot.

Things are back where they started for this heads up contest with Johnson on around 2.5 million and Gomes up to 6.7 million.
