Rae Gets Paid
Level 38
: Blinds 750,000/1,500,000, 750,000 ante
Jared Passanante called with 8♠5♦ on the button, and Lucas Rea checked his big blind option with K♣7♥.
The 7♣6♥Q♥ flop connected with both players, but produced a pair of checks. The 7♠ turn saw Rae lead his trip sevens for 3,000,000, and Passanante made the call.
Rae led out again on the 2♠ river, sizing up to 8,500,000. After taking some time, Passanante stuck the call and saw the bad news, allowing Rae to recover some chips.
