McCarrel Joins the Big Stacks

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

On the tail end of a big pot between Jason Lilly and Casey McCarrel, the former checked the river of a board {4-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and McCarrel bet 30,000 into a pot of around 42,000. Lilly gave it a lot of consideration and called, but quickly mucked when he was shown the {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds} of McCarrel.

A few minutes later, Lilly was eliminated by Robert Tepper.

Ryan Yu, who was very short-stacked not long ago, has since climbed back to almost starting stack.
