Big Stacks Clash in Huge Pot

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Salvatore Dicarlo and Daniel Cascado have been playing in pots all day together, and they just took each other on in a pot that nearly had a million chips in it. The action started with Dicarlo raising to 40,000 from under the gun. Cascado called from the hijack, and the flop came down {8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, and Dicarlo lead out for 52,000. Cascado thought for a few moments before raising it up to 121,000, and it was back to Dicarlo. He tanked for about a minute before cutting out raising chips, and he made it 222,000 to go. Cascado called, and there was already half a million chips in play going to the turn.

That card was the {5-Hearts}, and Dicarlo didn't slow down, firing out 180,000. Cascado went into the tank for about a minute before announcing all in! These two were the biggest stacks in the tournament, with Cascado having Dicarlo covered, so it would be a ginormous pot if Dicarlo called off. He tanked for about 90 seconds before kicking his hand in, and Cascado took the giant pot to up his stack to 1.96 million.
