Skimbo Doubles in Massive Pot
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Action was picked up on the flop with the board showing J?7?7? with roughly 9,000 already in the middle. After the flop Michael Skimbo was all in for 139,000, and Jeff Sowell putting him at risk.
Michael Skimbo: A?7? 
Jeff Sowell: Q?J?
Skimbo flopped trips and was in a great position to take a massive pot. Needing a jack to improve past the trip sevens of Skimbo, the 4? on the turn, and A? on the river gave Skimbo a full house sevens full of aces to double up and leave Sowell on fumes.
