Big Slick Helps Locascio to a Double-Up
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
The under-the-gun player opened to 2,500 and Stuart Locascio made a three-bet to 10,000 from middle position. When the action got back to the under-the-gun player, he shoved all in. Locascio quickly called for his stack of around 42,000.
Stuart Locascio: A?K? 
Under The Gun: 3?3?
Locascio paired his ace on the 2?Q?A? flop and maintained his lead throughout the runout as neither the Q? turn nor 7? river could change anything.
