Kasic Wins Battle of Aces
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Mark Shutley raised his button to 85,000. Sejo Kasic called in the small blind before Tony Gregg piled in 360,000 chips in the big blind.
Shutley moved out of the way with A♠6♥, but Kasic wanted to see a flop and called. Kasic check-called Gregg's bet of 150,000 on the 6♠K♥A♦ flop, and did so too when Gregg sized up to 350,000 on the 5♥ turn.
The 9♣ river was quickly checked to showdown, where Kasic's A♣7♣ outkicked Gregg's A♥2♠ to win the sizable pot.
