Failla Chipping Up

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

We just had Will Failla move into the tan section of the Amazon and subsequently take down a huge pot as soon as he showed up.

A player in the cutoff raised it up to 2,300 and Failla in the big blind re-raised to 5,100. The cutoff then put a fourth bet out there making it 13,400 and Failla called.

The flop came down {4-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{8-Diamonds} and the cutoff put out a bet of 15,200 which Failla instantly called. The turn came the {a-Spades} and Failla checked again. This time the cutoff checked as well and the river came {7-Spades}. Both players checked again and Failla announced "One Pair" showing {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}. His opponent mucked and he scooped the big pot to put him up to 220,000.
