Antonio Casale = Chipleader

Antonio Casale = Chipleader
Antonio Casale = Chipleader
The entire poker room started buzzing when word got out that Antonio Casale was the chipleader. As one local player put it, "He's been playing poker at the Crown since it opened."

Casale is trying to become the first player past the 1 million chip mark.

Kevin Saul = Chip and a Chair

Saul was just caught bluffing by Steven Miller in a big pre-flop battle. Saul raised to 16,000 only to have Miller on his immediate left make it 48,000 to go. Saul shoved all-in for 200,000 and Miller made the call.

Saul tabled {7-Clubs}{4-Spades} and was live but dominated by the {A-Spades}{K-Hearts} of Miller.

The board ran dry for Saul and he is now left with just his ante for the next hand.
