Famed Hollywood director Nick Cassavetes' plays in today's Main Event and for now, things are going really well.
We just watched Cassavetes limp in from the small blind and the big blind checked. The flop brought out and Cassavetes tossed in 200. The big blind raised to 500 and the action was back on the man who directed "The Notebook" and "Entourage", among others.
"You raise?" Cassavetes said while putting on an Italian accent.
"You raise?" he asked again before tossing in a three-bet to 1,600.
The big blind called and on the turn, both players checked. On the river, Cassavetes tossed out 2,250 and his opponent quickly folded.
