Mostafa Can't Shake Capdevil

Jose Luis Capdevila button-raised to 26,000, and big blind Cesar Mostafa came along from the big blind. The flop brought out {9-Spades} {5-Hearts} {4-Diamonds}, and with it came the action. Mostafa led out with a bet of 25,000, drawing a raise to 67,000 from Capdevila. When the three-bet came, Capdevila called all in for a total of about 220,000, Mostafa having him well covered.

Showdown
Capdevila: {A-Clubs} {9-Diamonds}
Mostafa: {Q-Clubs} {10-Hearts}

Mostafa had no pair and no draw, but if he could hit, he would skyrocket up close to the million-chip mark.

The {8-Diamonds} on the turn missed him, though. And so did the {K-Hearts} that rivered. Capdevil's pair holds up, and he's earned himself a huge double up to 510,000.

That knocks Mostafa all the way back to 420,000, and Norbert Luges picks up the chip lead by virtue of that slide.
