Casalnuovo Cracks Top Set to Double
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
With two players seeing a board reading 7?9?K?J? and about 12,500 in the middle, Domenico Casalnuovo checked from the big blind and Yi Ang Lin bet 14,200 from the cutoff. Casalnuovo shoved for 14,200 and Lin called with a covering stack to put Casalnuovo at risk.
Domenico Casalnuovo: 10?8? 
Yi Ang Lin: K?K?
Lin had flopped the nuts with top set only for Casalnuovo to pull ahead on the turn with the second-nut straight. The board did not pair on the 3? turn after which Casalnuovo dragged in a full double up at Lin's expense.
