Alban Sends Young Packing
Maxwell Young raised to 500,000 at the cutoff. After the button folded, Joseph Alban made a small three-bet of 1,150,000 out of the small blind.
The player in the big blind folded, and action returned to Young, who moved all in for his remaining stack.
Alban went in the tank, and then asked the dealer for a count, which was confirmed as 5,885,000.
Alban then reached down to his card protector, a toy car. He wound it up and let it go, allowing it to race across the felt into Young��s all-in stack, which was directly in front of Young.
��Is that a call?�� Young asked.
��Yes,�� Alban replied.
The cards were then tabled, with Young at risk.
Maxwell Young: A?Q?
Joseph Alban: K?K?
Alban��s hand appeared to surprise Young, as he watched the dealer fan J?10?Q? on the flop. The 7? on the turn kept Alban in the lead, and 10? on the river ended Young��s tournament.
Young, however, had to ask a final question as he packed his belongings.
��Did you mean to slow roll me or were you really worried I had aces?�� Young asked across the table to Alban.
Alban didn��t respond.
