Alsup Cracks Aces With Trips..... Again!
Level 45
: Blinds 3,000,000/6,000,000, 6,000,000 ante
Richard Alsup called with 9♠7♣ and Dicarlo checked Q♦2♣ back.
Alsup flopped best on 6♠J♦7♥ and bet out for 6,000,000. Dicarlo made a quick fold.
The following hand, Dicarlo raised to 12,000,000 and Alsup defended. Dicarlo bet out for 8,000,000 on the 6♣8♦4♦ flop when checked to. Alsup very quickly check-shoved 120,000,000 with his pair and draw, and Dicarlo snap-called.
Richard Alsup: 7♠6♠
Salvatore Dicarlo: A♦A♣
Alsup had already cracked Dicarlo's aces once today when he rivered trip kings in a huge spot. The J♥ turn had Dicarlo just one card away from victory, but it was snatched away from him on the 6♥ river, as Alsup made trips yet again, and almost evened up the head-to-head tie.
