State Regains Lead After Boat-Over-Boat Cooler

Level 36
: Blinds 100,000/250,000, 250,000 ante

Adrian State raised to 500,000 as first to act, after which Giorgio Soceanu defended his big blind. The 9?8?7? flop was checked through to the J? turn, where Soceanu check-called the 500,000 bet of State.
Soceanu then led out for 1,300,000 when the board paired on the 9? river. In response, State put in a massive raise to 9,500,000, about half his stack.
Soceanu looked puzzled but quickly tossed in a call. State tabled J?J? for the best full house. Soceanu grimaced as he tabled 7?7? for the bottom full house, losing the gigantic pot to State.
