Kraous Takes Chip Lead With Higher Full House
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Jeremie Zouari open limped from middle position and was joined by Jon Vallinas and Anton Kraous who limped on the button. The small blind completed and big blind checked their option.
The flop came 5♦5♥8♥ and action checked to Zouari, who bet 150,000. Kraous called and all other players vacated the pot.
The turn came the 4♦ and both players checked. The river was the 6♦ and Zouari moved all in for the the rest of Kraous' stack. Kraous made the call and players flipped their cards.
Anton Kraous: 8♠8♦
Jeremie Zouari: 4♣4♠
Zouari had a full house with fives full of fours. Kraous, however, showed pocket eights for a higher full house. That gave him a huge double up and brought him into the top position as chip leader.
