Mason Moves in on Alavez
Level 23
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Briant Alavez opened to 60,000 on the button and Craig Mason called from the small blind. Ivan Poroliev also defended his big blind, taking the players three-ways to the A♦6♠J♥ flop.
Action checked to Alavez, who bet 50,000 and only Mason called. A 5♣ turn was checked by both to see the 2♥ river.
Mason moved out 600,000, covering Alavez's remaining 260,000 chips. Alavez went into the tank and looked at his neighbor and again at the board, before finding a fold.
