Eastgate Builds a Bigger House

Peter Eastgate
Peter Eastgate
Peter Eastgate made it 4,100 to play from under-the-gun and got one caller. Both players checked the flop of {7-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Eastgate check-called for 7,000 when the turn brought the {8-Clubs}.

The river brought the {9-Spades} and Eastgate check-raised all in after his opponent bet 12,000. He got the call and showed {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for eights full to dwarf his opponent's {5-Clubs}{5-Spades} for the under-house. Eastgate now has 200,000.
