Thorel's Full House gets Paid
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel raised 2,500 in the cutoff and Erik Seidel came along in the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of K♣K♠9♠, and both players checked to see the 9♣ on the turn.
Seidel check-called a bet of 2,500 from Thorel and the 5♣ landed on the river.
Seidel check-called once again, this time the bet was 5,500. Thorel instantly tabled K♦Q♠, for a full house and Seidel mucked his hand as he let out a "wow." With a chuckle.
