Joshua Tjan's Fullhouse Over Set Cooler Busts Lenart Ecarma

Flight B PokerStars Red Dragon (PHP 25M GTD)

Blinds: 600/1200 Ante 1200 (Level 9)


Joshua Tjan made a min-raise of 2,400 from UTG+1 and Lenart Ecarma defended from the big blind. The flop came 2 2 8. Ecarma overbet 14,000 and was called by Tjan to see a 3 on the turn. Ecarma pushed the last 9,000 chips and Tjan called again.


Tjan turned over a fullhouse eights over deuces while Ecarma showed a set of twos. Ecarma had a one-outer, but the poker gods threw a meaningless J on the river instead. Ecarma vacated his seat with a heavy feeling while Tjan stacked them up.
