Alsup Wins 'El Clásico'

Level 39 : Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Rich Alsup
Rich Alsup

Richard Alsup raised to 3,500,000 from middle position. Action folded around to Nikolaos Angelou, who announced all in, covering Alsup's near-50,000,000 stack. Alsup didn't wait for too long before making the call.

Richard Alsup: Q♦Q♣ All in
Nikolaos Angelou: A♦K♥

It was the classic flip in a massive spot, and the 5♥4♣3♦ flop afforded some additional outs to Angelou in the form of a straight draw. The 3♠ turn changed nothing, with Alsup only having one card to fade in order to scoop a massive one.

The Q♠ river was overkill, as he improved to top boat, and breathed a sigh of relief as he raked in the near nine-figure pot.
