Gazzola Turns a Boat Against Faro's Trips

Level 20 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Tim Faro raised to 25,000 on the button, when the small blind Ben Gazzola three-bet to 85,000. The big blind folded, and Faro made the call to see a flop.

After the J?J?9? flop, Gazzola bet out 40,000, before Faro raised to 150,000. Gazzola made the call to head to a turn.

After the A? on the turn, Gazzola check-called a bet of 175,000 from Faro.

The river was the 10? and after Gazzola checked to Faro, he gave his decision some thought before checking as well.

Gazzola then turned over A?A? for a turned full house, aces full of jacks. Faro showed J?8? for trip jacks before tossing his cards into the muck, as Gazzola took in a huge pot.
