Fundaro Hits Trips
Level 30
: 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Giacomo Fundaro opened for 225,000 from the button holding 
. In the big blind it was Jason Westmorland and he made the call with 
.
Westmorland and Fundaro both checked the 
flop. The 
on the turn made for more action as Westmorland check-called a 275,000 bet. The 
on the river again saw Westmorland check. The check back on the flop by Funaro put him on the wrong track probably, as he now called the 435,000 bet from Fundaro.
With nothing but the pair of eights on the table and his ace-high he called. His bluff catch didn't catch a bluff this time, Fundaro tabled his rivered trips and took down the pot.
