Carbo Nearing Eight-Figure Stack
Level 30
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Gerard Carbo made it 400,000 in the small blind. Modar Alsoud sat in the big blind and called, as did he when Carbo bet 200,000 on the 5♥4♦3♥ flop.
Carbo slowed down on the 8♣ turn with a check. Alsoud fired a bet of 475,000, which Carbo called.
Both parties checked the A♦ river to showdown. Carbo confidently tabled A♠Q♦ for top pair, and he took down the pot when Alsoud's cards hit the muck.
