Dueling Full Houses

[user75032]

There have been scores of big hands running into big hands today. It happened again between Anthony Rafter and Kevin Flett. Rafter popped it up to 1,525 from the button and was called by Flett out of the big blind. Both players checked when the flop came down {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{4-Diamonds}

{4-Clubs}

. On the turn {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

, all hell broke loose.

Flett acted first, and bet 2,000. Rafter raised that bet to 5,025. Action passed back to Flett, who reraised to 25,000. Rafter was undeterred -- he moved all in and Flett called.

Flett: {4-?}

{4-?}

{K-?}

Rafter:

{Q-?}

{Q-?}

Flett turned a small full house, but Rafter had flopped a bigger one. The river was a brick, the {2-Spades}

{2-Spades}

, and the massive pot belonged to Rafter. He's up to 76,000 while Flett is down to 42,000.
