Gazzola and Talbot Both River Trips
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Ben Gazzola limped in on the button, and Parker Talbot checked his option in the big blind.
After the A?8?5? flop, Talbot checked to Gazzola who bet out 100,000. Talbot then raised to 375,000, which was called by Gazzola.
Both players checked after the 9? on the turn.
The river was the 8? and Talbot led out for 1,900,000. Gazzola wasted no time and made the call.
Talbot turned over J?8? for trip eights, but Gazzola had him beat when he tabled K?8? for trip eights as well, with a king kicker to scoop a massive pot and retake the lead.
