Hugo Marcelo opened with a raise to 2,200 from early position and he got calls from Gustavo Prato on the button and Homar Rassi in the big blind.

All three players checked the {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} flop to see the {10-Spades} on the turn. There, Rassi led out with a bet of 3,000 which both players called.

The river was the {3-Diamonds} and Rassi slowed down and checked. Marcelo put out a big bet, relative to the size of the pot, of 17,000. Prato called quickly while Rassi folded. Marcelo showed {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} for a flopped full house and that earned him the big pot, boosting him over 100,000 chips.
