El-Hajj Fills Up
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Bart Lybaert called in the small blind and Alain El-Hajj checked his option to see the 8♥10♦3♥ flop.
Lybaert checked and called when El-Hajj tossed out a bet of 10,000. Lybaert checked again on the 8♠ turn and El-Hajj checked behind.
The 6♦ river produced another check from Lybaert, with El-Hajj taking some time and sliding out a bet of 55,000. Lybaert made the quick call and revealed 8♣4♥ for trip eights. It was no good, as El-Hajj held 8♦3♦ for a full house to take down a sizeable pot.
