Pahlawani Doubles Up, Casagrande Almost Gets Away
Level 17
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Aaron Pahlawani tossed in his last 110,000 from the big blind on a 9♠4♣3♥ flop. The pot amounted to 240,000 at that point, and Harry Casagrande weighed his options in early position.
Eventually, Casagrande decided he could not fold and made the call.
Aaron Pahlawani: Q♠J♠9♦6♥ 
Harry Casagrande: A♣J♦10♠8♠
Pahlawani's single pair of nines remained the best hand on the 2♥ turn and 8♦ river, doubling him up.
"Bravo!" Casagrande said with a smile as he tossed Pahlawani the chips from across the table.
