Big Pot, No Whammies.... Stop!

It's a whammy for Allan Brown. He opened with a preflop raise that was reraised by Carman Cavella. Brown responded by pushing all in for 240,000 total, a bet which Cavella instantly called.

Cavella: {10-Hearts} {10-Diamonds}
Brown: {A-?} {J-?}

We like Cavella's hand more than Brown's, and so did Cavella when the board rolled out {2-Spades} {Q-Spades} {4-Diamonds} {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts}. That board was a win for Cavella, pushing him up to the top of the counts with 825,000 chips and pushing Brown out the door.
