After the action was folded around to him in late position, chip leader Juha Vilkki opened for 36,000 and Rafe Kibrit made the call. The flop fell and Vilkki fired out a bet of 45,000, which Kibrit quickly called.
The turn card came and Vilkki continued with a bet of 145,000. Kibrit took his time with this decision, but eventually slid out two stacks to make the call.
River:
Vilkki was undeterred by the scare card and slid 280,000 into the middle. Kibrit snap-called and revealed the for trip aces on the river. Vilkki lost over 400,000 chips on this hand and will have to rebuild after his three-barreled betting failed to move Kibrit off of his hand.
