Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante
Oliver Said
Oliver Said

With 26,000 in the pot on the {9-Spades}{8-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{4-Hearts} board, Fabio Figurella check-raised from the small blind to 46,000 after Oliver Said bet 18,000 from the cutoff.

Said couldn't believe the raise and asked "How do you have a full house?"

Said eventually called and his initial thought was correct. Figurella rolled over his {k-Clubs}{8-Hearts} for eights full of kings and Said exposed his {a-Spades}{7-Spades} for a no good ace-high flush.
