Yves Thalmann opened from the button, only to be met with a 3-bet from Simon Lindell. With 20,000 already in the pot, the two saw a stunning flop of K♣K♠K♦. Lindell led out with a small bet of 3,000, and Thalmann made a quick call.
The turn brought the 5♥, and Lindell continued his cautious line with another small bet of 5,500, which Thalmann again called. On the river 3♥, Lindell bet 12,500 into Thalmann’s remaining stack of 26,500. Thalmann took his time but ultimately made the call.
Lindell revealed A♥A♣, and Thalmann mucked his cards, unable to overcome the powerhouse hand. A steady line from Lindell, who took down the pot with a full house on a triple-King board.
Simon Lindell: 190,000
Yves Thalmann: 14,000
