Cass Cracks Alfa's Aces to Double in 24 Million Chip Pot
Level 31
: 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Anthony Cass just doubled through Dave Alfa to become the new tournament chip leader.
With the flop showing ![]()
![]()
and already more than two million in the pot, Cass bet 2,000,000 from the small blind, Alfa called from the big blind, and a player in the cutoff got out of the way.
Cass moved all in on the
turn for 8,035,000 and Alfa snap-called.
Alfa showed ![]()
, but Cass had him crushed with ![]()
for the flopped set.
The river didn't give Alfa the ace or spade he needed, and Cass raked in the massive pot.
A few hands earlier, Cass had won a pot with a royal flush.
