Acosta Pulls Even in Monster Hand

Level 25 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Michael Gagliano bet 120,000 on a board of {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} after both players checked the flop. He got a call from Jason Acosta and then bet what looked like 300,000 on the {6-Clubs} river. Acosta jammed for just over 1.1 million.

"Fours?" Gagliano wondered. "What on earth happened here? I got there, too."

Gagliano seemed to be truly struggling.

"Do you think ace-ten is good?"

Gagliano finally sighed and called.

Acosta turned over {9-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for a straight.

"God, you did shove nine-seven," Gagliano said, showing {7-Hearts}{5-Hearts}. "Such a sick river."
