[user67765]

We caught the action on a flop of {8-Spades}

{8-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{8-Diamonds}

with Emad Tahtouh leading with a bet of 3,500 from middle position. His opponent, Jacob Flasterstein, then raised it up from the button to 9,000. Tahtouh made the call.

The turn brought the {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

and Tahtouh made a small bet of 4,000. Flasterstein flat-called. The river landed the {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

and Tahtouh checked and Flasterstein quickly checked behind.

Tahtouh tabled {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

for a flopped full house to take the pot to add to his blossoming stack.

"You want to keep floating me, that's what's going to happen to you. How about you raise sometime?" snarled Tahtouh after the hand, "I'm going to take every one of your chips!" He is now up to 112,000 chips.
