Full House for "Marymb"

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

Jonas "LobyPewis" Mackoff limped in middle position before "bucketgetter" raised to 225 on the button. "Marymb" three-bet to 400 in the big blind and both Mackoff and "bucketgetter" made the call.

On the {k-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Hearts} flop, all three players checked to see the {9-Diamonds} on the turn. "marymb" led out for 450 and only "bucketgetter" called.

The {k-Hearts} completed the board and both players quickly checked. "marymb" showed {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts} for a full house and it was good to take down the pot.
