Lotta Paint on Board

Paul Wasicka limped from middle position, and Keith Hawkins raised to 2,000 from late position. Robert Melnyk called from the big blind, and Wasicka called as well.

The flop came {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}. All three checked. The turn brought the {J-Clubs}. Melnyk checked, Wasicka bet 4,000, and Hawkins called. Melnyk got out of the way.

The river was the {Q-Diamonds}, putting a full house on the board. Wasicka bet 5,000, and Hawkins called. Hawkins showed {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} for jacks full of kings, and Wasicka mucked.

Hawkins is now up to 80,000, while Wasicka has slipped to 12,000.
