Garner Backs Into Trips
Level 2
: 100/200, 0 ante
A player limped in from under the gun and Greg Collins raised to 1,100 from early position. Action folded around to Mike Garner who called from the hijack before action folded back to the big blind and under-the-gun limper who both called.
The dealer fanned a flop of 
and all four players checked. The turn came 
and action checked to Garner, who bet 3,000. The big blind called and the under-the-gun limper and Collins folded, taking action heads up to the river 
. The big blind checked and Garner fired another bet of 3,000 forward which was called.
Garner tabled 
for trip nines and his opponent tapped the table twice and mucked.
