Michael Casson made it 265,000 from the Small Blind. James Fowler decided to defend his Big Blind, and the two of them went on to tango for the second hand in a row.
Action went check-check on the 3♥6♣Q♥ flop. Casson checked again on the A♦ turn, prior to Fowler betting 375,000. After one minute’s worth of consideration, Fowler made the call.
Casson led out for 275,000 on the J♦ river, and within a minute, Fowler raised to a hefty 1,400,000. Casson spent two to three minutes in the tank before folding.
Thanks to the stream, we know that Casson had top pair with A♣8♣, and that Fowler pulled off a bluff with his K♦9♣ holdings. He got some valuable chips back after losing the earlier hand to Casson.
James Fowler: 5,000,000
Michael Casson: 3,300,000
