Brereton Hurts Petrov

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

With 24,000 already in the middle and a board showing {a-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}, Yordan Petrov check-called the 5,000 bet from Luke Brereton on the button.

A {7-Clubs} fell on the turn and Petrov check-called once more, this time a 15,000 bet from Brereton.

Things escalated on the {2-Hearts} river. After Petrov checked, Brereton fired a huge bet of 54,000. Petrov ended up calling, but his {k-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} was facing the {k-Spades}{9-Spades} in Brereton's hand for trip kings with a better kicker.
