State Regains Lead After Boat-Over-Boat Cooler

Level 36
: Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Adrian State raised to 500,000 as first to act, after which Giorgio Soceanu defended his big blind. The 9♥8♠7♦ flop was checked through to the J♥ turn, where Soceanu check-called the 500,000 bet of State.
Soceanu then led out for 1,300,000 when the board paired on the 9♣ river. In response, State put in a massive raise to 9,500,000, about half his stack.
Soceanu looked puzzled but quickly tossed in a call. State tabled J♠J♦ for the best full house. Soceanu grimaced as he tabled 7♠7♣ for the bottom full house, losing the gigantic pot to State.
