Team Ali Scores Big Against Team Bagin
Action picked up on the flop with a board showing 4♠J♣5♣ in a hand between Mark Bagin and Richard Ali.
Bagin, who was out of position, led out with 800,000 and was called by Ali, who was on the button.
The turn produced Q♦ and Bagin sized up to a 2,500,000 bet, which got Ali’s attention. Ali went in the tank for a few moments before making the call to bloat the pot.
The A♥ showed up on the river and Bagin slowed down with a check. Ali took a few moments before moving all in for the rest of his stack, which the dealer confirmed as 3,375,000.
Bagin paused before calling to put Ali at risk and the hands were tabled.
Richard Ali: A♣4♣ 
Mark Bagin: Q♥J♥
Ali’s flopped bottom pair and four to the nut flush, and by the turn was against Bagin’s top two pair. The ace on the river, though, swung the hand to Ali for a massive double up and pot.
Meanwhile, Team Bagin’s stack was decimated.
