Kirk Brown

Level 33 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 6,000 ante

Thomas "lultaxpayers" Hall opened to 120,000 and tartar three-bet to 350 from the button. Hall made the call, and the two went to the flop of 8?6?8?.

Hall checked to "TaratorLover" who continued for 180,000, but then Hall check-raised to 461,584. "TaratorLover" evidently did not think that was quite enough and re-raised all-in for 1,490,115. Hall quickly made the call to put him at risk, and the cards were exposed.

Thomas "lultaxpayers" Hall: K?J?
"TaratorLover": Q?Q?

"TaratorLover" was still in the lead with their pocket queens but the turn 5? gave Hall the advantage as he made his flush. The J? on the river was a brick, and Hall scooped the pot, eliminating "TaratorLover".
