After a raise in late position, Jonathan "xMONSTERxDONGx" Karamalikis made it 450 to play from the big blind. His opponent made the call and they saw a flop of {4-Spades}{A-Spades}{4-Diamonds}.

Karamalikis fired 525 and his opponent called. The turn brought the {6-Spades} and Karamalikis fired again for 1,200, and again was met with a call.

On the {4-Clubs} river Karamalikis released a third barrel worth 3,000 and again his opponent looked him up, however Karamalikis tabled {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} for a full house which was good to scoop the pot. He's up to 25,000 in the early goings.
