Palmer Fills Up, Gets Paid

Level 3 : 75/150, 25 ante

John Palmer tossed out a bet of 3,500 on a {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} board. There was about 13,000 in the middle and Isham Yamani check-called.

The dealer laid the {2-Clubs} down on the river and Yamani checked again. Palmer acted quickly betting 12,000. After a moment in the tank Yamani made the call, mucking when Palmer showed him {5-Hearts}{5-Clubs} for a full house.
