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.
