Default Joe Cassidy - Holy Shit!

These are updates from last night at the 5 Diamond Classic at Bellagio ($15,000 buy-in)

Title: Joe Cassidy Wins a Huge Pot Against Patrik Antonius to Take the Chip Lead
Log: With the board showing 9s-6d-5d-Qh-Jd on the river, Joe Cassidy bets about $100,000 into a roughly $500,000 pot, and Patrik Antonius raises to $300,000. Cassidy makes an incredible call with Ad-7c (ace high). Sure enough, Antonius shows Ah-3d, and Cassidy's kicker plays to win the entire pot.


Joe Cassidy is our new chip leader with approximately $1.45 million, while Antonius is down to $500,000.




And not 30 minutes later....

Title: Glynn Beebe Eliminated in 32nd Place
Log: Glynn Beebe raises to $36,000 from the cutoff position, Joe Cassidy reraises to $136,000, and Beebe moves all in for $391,000. Joe Cassidy calls, and Beebe shows Ks-Jd. But Cassidy shows -- the Hammer! 7h-2h! Beebe is a favorite to double up here. The flop comes Qc-5c-5s, and Beebe is still in the lead with king high. But the 7d falls on the turn, giving Cassidy the lead with a pair of sevens. Beebe needs a jack or a king to stay alive, but the river card is the 2d.



Glynn Beebe is in shock as he is eliminated in 32nd place -- by seven-deuce. Joe Cassidy now has a huge lead with $1.85 million in chips.



Can you believe these plays? He must have had some SICK reads on these people. A7 in the 1st hand, and he has to be REALLY sure the guy doesn't have a pair in the 2nd one. Obviously he'd look pretty stupid if he was wrong, but these seem like the kind of hands that people would talk about for a long time. There's some interesting stuff about Davood Mehrmand, who's sitting at Cassidy's table, just raving over and over about the sick plays Cassidy's making.
