Gallagher Shows Winner

Level 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Joseph Gallagher opened to 2,500 from early position and was called in two places by Justus Marsico from the cutoff and Octavian Tarcau in the small blind.

Gallagher continued for 3,500 on the 228 flop before both opponents called.

The action slowed down on the A turn as all three remaining players checked.

Tarcau led out for 4,500 on the 4 river to resume the betting. Gallagher called, but Marsico folded.

Tarcau tapped the table in resignation as he showed 33 for two pair. He was correct that they were no good as Gallagher tabled JJ for a higher two pair to claim the pot.
