Set of Aces is Gold for Tatum

From under the gun, Brian Tatum raised to 70,000. He was called by two players, including Suresh Prabhu. On a flop of {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {2-Hearts}, Tatum bet 205,000. This time only Prabhu called.

The turn came {4-Clubs}, prompting Tatum to move all in for 350,000. Prabhu snap-called, only to find out his {A-Hearts} {J-Spades} was drawing dead to Tatum's {A-Spades} {A-Clubs}. The river was the {9-Hearts}.

Tatum doubled up to about 1.2 million, while Prabhu dropped to about 1.7 million.
