Thomas "lultaxpayers" Hall opened to 120,000 and tartar three-bet to 350 from the button. Hall made the call, and the two went to the flop of 8♥6♦8♦.

Hall checked to "TaratorLover" who continued for 180,000, but then Hall check-raised to 461,584. "TaratorLover" evidently did not think that was quite enough and re-raised all-in for 1,490,115. Hall quickly made the call to put him at risk, and the cards were exposed.

Thomas "lultaxpayers" Hall: K♦J♦
"TaratorLover": Q♠Q♦

"TaratorLover" was still in the lead with their pocket queens but the turn 5♦ gave Hall the advantage as he made his flush. The J♥ on the river was a brick, and Hall scooped the pot, eliminating "TaratorLover".
