Assareh Spiraling

Just before break, there was a three-way pot on Table 3 with around 800,000 in the middle. The board read {3-Spades}{3-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}, and Shahriar Assareh and Danny Wong checked to Marc Ladouceur, who tossed out 600,000 on the button. Only Assareh called.

The {q-Diamonds} completed the board, and Assareh checked again. Ladouceur tanked for nearly a minute, then slid out thirteen lavender T100,000 chips, betting 1.3 million. Assareh quickly called, and Ladouceur tabled {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for a flush.

Assareh mucked, leaving himself with only 1.055 million chips. Ladouceur is now up to 11 million.
