Valenti Cracks Aces and Triples Up
Albert Garver raised to 1,000,000 from early position, and Cesar Flores three-bet to 2,000,000 from the hijack. Jeffrey Valenti four-bet jammed for 4,500,000 for the action to fold back to Garver who called for the 3,100,000 he had behind. Flores looked at them and made the call, having both opponents covered.
Albert Garver: 6♣6♦ 
Jeffrey Valenti: 8♥8♦
Cesar Flores: A♠A♥
The flop came 3♦5♠K♠ for Flores to stay ahead with his pocket aces.
The turn was the 6♥ for Garver to take the lead as he hit a set of sixes but the river completed the board with the 8♠ for Valenti to leap ahead and claim the pot with a set of eights.
The whole table gasped, and so did the rail. Flores took his phone out after paying up to document this for his own rail at home.
