Third Bullet is a Charm for Nick Yunis
Aug 22, '15
A player in middle position raised to 1,300 and Nick Yunis three-bet to 3,000 directly to his left. The big blind cold-called the three-bet and the original raiser came along as well.
All three players checked a flop of KQ3 and the 7 came on the turn. The big blind checked and middle position bet 4,000. Yunis called and the big blind folded. The river was the 2 and middle position checked. Yunis bet 5,200 and he got his opponent to fold.
Yunis scooped the pot and is approaching the 50,000 chip mark on his third bullet of the day.
Nick Yunis – 47,800
