Fabian Foster opened from early position and Corey Zedo came along from the big blind to the 9c7s3h flop. Zedo lead for 1,000,000 and Foster called. The turn was 7c, Zedo bet another 1,100,000 and Foster called.

The river was 2s, Zedo bet 2,700,000 and Foster moved all in for 13,900,000. Zedo thought for a few moments and called for a massive pot.

Foster tabled 9s9d for the flopped set and turned full house to beat Zedo’s trip sevens with Qh7h.

Fabian Foster – 35,155,000 (88 bb)
Corey Zedo – 8,100,000 (20 bb)
