Level 26 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Jeff Banghart

Jeff Banghart opened to 125,000 from under the gun action folded around to Robert Meglich, who defended his big blind. The flop was {a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{5-Spades} and Meglich checked. Banghart checked behind.

The turn came {4-Hearts} and both players checked again. The river came {j-Spades} and Meglich checked once again. Banghart announced he was all in as he pushed forward a stack of chips. Meglich asked for a count, which was totaled to be 520,000.

"Call," said Meglich. Both hands were tabled.

Jeff Banghart: {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}
Robert Meglich: {j-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Banghart had trapped Meglich with a flopped set that became a full house on the turn. He continued his trap, allowing Meglich to hit jacks up by the river, where he got paid off with his overbet shove to score the double.
