One Pair is Good For Monster Pot

Justin Filtz had the button and raised to 125,000. Matt Jarvis three-bet to 455,000, Filtz called, and the flop came down {4-Clubs}{2-Spades}{4-Diamonds}. Jarvis led for 485,000, and Filtz called.

Both players checked the {7-Hearts} on the turn, and the river brought the {k-Clubs}. Jarvis slid out 860,000, and Filtz quickly called.

Jarvis tabled {q-Diamonds}{7-Spades} for a pair of sevens, and Filtz unhappily mucked his hand.
