Kassis Doubles in Huge Pot

A huge pot has gone down between George Kassis and Antonio Fazzolari, probably the biggest pot of the tournament so far. Kassis had raised preflop and was called by Fazzolari from the button. Kassis checked a flop of {5-Clubs} {Q-Spades} {9-Clubs} to Fazzolari, then called a bet. On the turn {A-Spades}, Kassis led out. Fazzolari raised him, but couldn't shake him as Kassis called. Kassis then moved all in for his last 115,000 on the river {3-Clubs}. Fazzolari called with {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds} for a set of nines, but Kassis had rivered the nut flush with {A-Clubs} {2-Clubs}! At the end of the day, it was a 650,000-chip pot to Kassis.
