Trips for Tony

After a flop of {6-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, Tony Hachem checked, his opponent bet 500, and Hachem called. The turn was the {7-Spades}, and both players checked.

The river was the {10-Spades}. Hachem bet 1,200, his opponent raised to 5,000, and Hachem instantly called, turning over {6-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for a set of sixes. His opponent mucked, but Hachem asked "Can I have a look?" As was his right. The dealer turned over his opponent's {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}.

Hachem is up to 59,000.
