Michael Rocco: XxXx/5?4?4?
Thomas Taylor: XxXx/5?8?6?
Andrey Zhigalov: XxXx/Q?K?J? - folded on fifth street
Thomas Taylor completed before Andrey Zhigalov raised. Michael Rocco called, as did Taylor and they went three-handed to fourth street.
All three players checked before Taylor bet on fifth. Zhigalov called, but Rocco raised. Taylor reraised, Zhigalov folded, and Rocco called all in.
Taylor made 6?7?6?8? for a full house, while Rocco had 2?3?4? showing for trips and a low draw. He peeled the 9? on seventh and slammed it onto the table with such force that the card bent in half before heading to the rail in eighth place.
