Boat Over Boat Gives Misirian a Double
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with roughly 15,000 in the pot, and the board showing 8♥8♦7♠.
John Misirian and Chris Nelson checked to Brian Hastings, who bet out 5,000. Misirian called, and Nelson folded to leave the players heads up.
Both players checked after the 10♠ on the turn. The river was the 5♦ and Misirian checked, and Hastings bet all in for the rest of Misirian's stack of 30,000, which was snap called. Hastings announced full house and showed 5x5x, but Misirian quickly tabled 7♦7♣ for a bigger full house, sevens full of eights to take the pot and double up.
