Fawcett Takes Biggest Pot of Tournament
Level 43
: 2,000,000/4,000,000, 4,000,000 ante
Justin Fawcett raised to 5,000,000 in middle position. Eric Dillon three-bet the pot to 14,000,000 from the small blind. Fawcett made the call.
After the flop hit A♣3♦Q♥, Dillon led out with a bet of 9,000,000. Fawcett called.
The board paired on the turn with the A♥, prompting a check from Dillon. Fawcett bet 17,000,000 chips and Dillon called.
When the river came 4♣ Dillon moved first, pushing all in with a covering stack of 26,500,000.
Fawcett thought about it for a bit, then made the call.
He showed a full house with Q♠Q♦. Dillon tabled A♠J♠ for trip aces.
Fawcett said his hesitation in making the final call was due to his being knocked out of an earlier WSOP event boat-over-boat.
