A Perfect Time to Flop a Full House
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Ilija Savevski opened to 50,000 from middle position and was called by Gregory Fournier from the hijack, Daniel Laidlaw three-bet to 185,000 from the cutoff and only Fournier called.
Fournier check-called for 90,000 on the 7♣5♣5♠ flop, which brought in the 10♠ turn. Fournier checked once more and immediately called off his last 460,000 after Laidlaw moved all in as the bigger stack.
Fournier had flopped a boat as he held 7♠7♥ and was miles in front of Laidlaw's A♦A♣. The 2♦ river completed the board and Fournier dragged in the pot.
