Alt’s Top Set Sends Beresford to Rail
Dinesh Alt was in the middle of a growing pot even before the flop, and his chip stack expanded as a result.
Alt raised 2,200 in early position, but Conor Beresford to his immediate left three-bet to 7,200, which Alt called after action folded to him.
The dealer fanned 6♣3♥8♦ on the board, which Alt checked, and Beresford bet 8,000. Alto took more than a minute studying the board, and then check-raised to 24,000. This time, it was his opponent’s turn to take a moment or two, but he made the call.
The turn produced Q♦, on which Alt check-called for 16,000 to bring 7♦ on the river.
Alt checked, and then watched his opponent count his stack, which totalled 40,300. Beresford announced an all-in bet, which Alt immediately called.
Dinesh Alt: Q♥Q♠
Conor Beresford: 9♦9♣
Alt’s top set took down a massive pot, which propelled him among the tourney chip leaders, and sent Beresford to the rail.
