Torelli Celebrates with a Set of Crabs
Jose Aguilera opened to 250,000 in early position and Zachary Hall called from the next seat before Alec Torelli came along from the big blind.
Torelli and Aguilera checked on the 3?6?J? flop and Hall bet 175,000. Torelli check-raised to 700,000 and Aguilera folded as Hall called.
Torelli then bet 1,600,000 on the 8? turn and Hall took some time before putting out a stack of 500,000-chips to raise Torelli all in. Torelli quickly called with a stack of 4,785,000.
Alec Torelli: 3?3?
Zachary Hall: 5?5?
"I didn't think you had that," Hall said glumly after seeing Torelli was far ahead with a set.
The 7? bricked off on the river to avoid a gross two-outer and Torelli did a lap and clutched his heart after securing the big double-up through the start-of-day chip leader.
