Casson Cracks Aces
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Marvis Cooper opened to 100,000 from early position and got a called from Roni Tal next to him. Michael Casson then shoved for around 1,000,000 from the cutoff, which only Cooper called.
Michael Casson: J♣J♠ 
Marvis Cooper: A♣A♠
Casson didn't seem impressed, but his mood soon changed on the J♦3♠10♥ flop as he made a set. No ace arrived for Cooper on the 5♦6♠ runout, and Casson can thank his lucky stars he is still alive.
