Gazzola Turns a Boat Against Faro's Trips
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Tim Faro raised to 25,000 on the button, when the small blind Ben Gazzola three-bet to 85,000. The big blind folded, and Faro made the call to see a flop.
After the J♣J♠9♣ flop, Gazzola bet out 40,000, before Faro raised to 150,000. Gazzola made the call to head to a turn.
After the A♠ on the turn, Gazzola check-called a bet of 175,000 from Faro.
The river was the 10♦ and after Gazzola checked to Faro, he gave his decision some thought before checking as well.
Gazzola then turned over A♥A♦ for a turned full house, aces full of jacks. Faro showed J♦8♦ for trip jacks before tossing his cards into the muck, as Gazzola took in a huge pot.
