Alioto Runs Into a Full House
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Hokyiu Lee raised to 250,000 on the button and Dario Alioto called.
Both players checked the 6♥7♦4♣ flop and Alioto also checked the 7♥ turn. Lee then fired out 350,000.
Alioto called and the Q♣ fell on the river. Lee bet another 1,100,000 and Alioto snap-called with 8♦5♠5♣3♣ for a flopped straight.
Lee, though, had 8♠7♣6♦6♣ for a full house as he took the big pot right at the start of heads-up play and opened a substantial lead.
