King Cassidy

Pot-Limit Omaha

We came upon this one on the river, with the board showing {8-Clubs}{10-Spades}{K-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}. The chips were being shipped to Joe Cassidy, who was showing {K-Hearts}{K-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for quads, and James Van Alstyne was mucking what had to have been a nice hand before that river.

Cassidy moved up to 16,500 on the strength of that hand, while Van Alstyne fell to 4,800.
