Toma Backs into a Full House
Level 7
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Derek Gibb opened 25,000 in early position and Tsugunari Toma called in the cutoff before Jonathan Little defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of A?A?3?, and both Little and Gibb checked to Toma who fired 26,000 across the line. Little quickly folded and Gibb stuck around with a call.
The 8? turn was checked through to see the 8? river, and Gibb checked for a final time. Toma flung 75,000 into the center and Gibb snap-called. Toma rolled 8?7? for eights full of aces and Gibb mucked his hand.
