Niveau 16

Carl Masters opened from early position, Craig Trost three-bet from one seat over, and Masters jammed. Trost called to put his stack of about 250,000 at risk.

Carl Masters: 
Trost's big slick ran into aces and he needed help. The 
flop provided none, but the 
turn gave him a glimmer of hope. Needing one of two kings to stay alive, the dealer put down the 
to complete the board, which prompted a loud celebration by Trost due to the improbable sequence that allows him to continue his Main Event run with a healthy stack.
