Tony Ma Makes a Huge Call

[user42991]

Tony Ma was in the small blind and raised to 1,150. The big blind called. On a flop of {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

{A-Hearts}

, Ma checked and his opponent went all in. Ma tanked for a while before finally making the call. Ma tabled {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{4-Clubs}

and his opponent showed {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

. The turn of the {J-Clubs}

{J-Clubs}

gave Ma's opponent a straight draw, but all of that was irrelevant when the {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

hit the river to give Ma the full house.

Ma is now up to 14,000 in chips.
