Lupascu Hits Trip Kings to Stay Alive
Nivel 25
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ondrej Goetz raised the button to 60,000 and Matei Lupascu shoved for 300,000 from the big blind. Goetz reluctantly called.
Matei Lupascu : K♠9♠ 
Ondrej Goetz: A♥2♥
The flop of A♣7♥4♦ put Goetz firmly in the lead as Lupascu started to get out of his chair. The K♦ turn gave Lupascu some hope of survival as he halted his movements of leaving his chair. The K♥ on the river improved Lupascu to an unlikely backdoor trips, and he could sit back down as he had just doubled up through Goetz.
