2010 World Series of Poker

Event #57: $10,000 No-Limit Hold'em Championship

The Kid Has Fite

Just as the announcement was coming over the PA telling dealers to stop after completing the hands they were on, we saw a hand on the secondary feature table in which Chris Bjorin opened for 15,000 from middle position, then Max Casal reraised to 53,000 behind. Brian Fite then reraised again all in over the top for about 110,000 total.

It folded back to Bjorin who also got out, and Casal quickly called. Casal showed {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, and Fite clapped his hands together once before tabling his {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}.

The board ran out {K-Spades}{2-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{4-Spades}{8-Spades}, and Fite survived with the double up. Casal still has a big stack with about 815,000.
