Butler Serves Up Salem

Laura Fryer
Laura Fryer
Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

Jim Butler opened to 700 from early position, and Yoann Nigro called from late position. Laith Salem three-bet to 3,700 from the hijack, and Butler and Nigro both paid extra to see the flop.

A 10♠K♦9♥ saw all make quick checks around the table to see the 10♥ turn. Butler bet 2,500 and only Salem called.

The 7♠ turn saw Salem bet out 2,500 and Butler called to get to showdown. Salem showed his A♣A♠, but Butler showed his J♣10♣ for trip tens to take the pot.
