Barnhart Soars to the Lead

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante
Sam Barnhart has the lead at the moment.
Sam Barnhart has the lead at the moment.

A player at Sam Barnhart's table just recounted a hand to us that gave Barnhart a mountain of chips. A player in the cutoff min-raised to open and Barnhart called out of the small blind.

The flop came {Q-} {Q-} {2-}, Barnhart bet and his opponent called. The turn came {4-}, Barnhart bet and his opponent called. The river came a blank and Barnhart bet 3/4 of his stack. His opponent insta-shoved and Barnhart snap-called.

Opponent: {2-} {2-}
Barnhart: {Q-} {2-}

The both flopped a full house but Barnhart had the better of it.
