Casterella Climbing

Matthew Casterella bet out 6,500 on a flop of {5-Clubs} {5-Spades} {2-Diamonds}. His opponent, on the button, made the call. The turn brought the {8-Diamonds} and Casterella fired again for 11,000. His opponent took his time and then made the call.

On the river, the two players saw the {5-Hearts} fall. With three fives now on board, Casterella checked over to his opponent. The button player checked behind.

Casterella flipped over two fours, {4-Diamonds} {4-Spades}. His full house was good enough to put him over the 345,000-chip mark.
