Alan Keating battled with Rahul all night before besting him in a pot worth $2.4 million, the 2nd largest ever in HCL history. (photo courtesy: Hustler Casino Live/John Villarama)Hustler Casino Liveās 2024 Million Dollar Game week came to an end on Friday night with incredible action and massive amounts of money changing hands, including a hand that instantly made history as the second-largest pot in Hustler Casino Live history, in which HCL fan-favorite Alan Keating dragged a pot more than $2.4 million.
For the better part of seven hours, Keating had been battling with HCL newcomer Rahul, a friend of high-stakes notable Santhosh Suvarna. Rahul quickly proved he was not a newcomer to playing at the nosebleed stakes and had used his position to make life difficult for Keating throughout the night. But after many jabs were traded Keating finally got the hand he was looking for in what turned into a knockout punch and the largest confrontation of the entire week.

Sitting on a stack of more than $1.3 million, holding the 
, Rahul put in a raise to $15,000. This being the action game it was, he got four callers including Keating holding 
.
Five ways to the flop of 
giving Rahul a pair and a flush draw with a back door straight draw. Keating also picked up a better flush draw as well as an open-ended straight draw. The other three hands for the most part missed. Rahul fired $40K into the middle and shed all the hands besides Keating, who made the call.
The turn was the 
, a potential scare card for both players. Undeterred, Rahul led for another $140,000 ā a pot-sized bet.
āRahul Praying for a spadeā¦but thatās not what he wants,ā commentator Christian Soto said. āPraying for a sevenā¦but thatās also not what he wants.
āPraying for a foldā¦thatās certainly not coming.ā
After a moment Keating made the call and the pot swelled to $437,000. And the dealer ripped off the 
, one of the biggest possible action cards in the deck for the hand.
Keating quickly checked. āRahul has to believe he had the best hand here,ā Soto continued. āAnd Keating rivers the nutsā¦what a river card.ā
Rahul clearly did believe he had the best hand as he slid out a $200K value bet, leaving himself with $951K behind. Keating looked down, paused, and announced he was all in for $1 million. Rahul instantly looked pained, asked for a count, and was immediately put in the blender.
āThis is going to take some time,ā Rahul said and started trying to unravel the hand out loud.
And after roughly six minutes of deliberations, Rahul made the call and was shown the bad news. Keating, who was stuck more than a million before the hand dragged the $2.437 million pot, was immediately in the black and into the history books as the winner of one of the largest pots in televised poker history, just behind Tom Dwanās record win in the Million Dollar Game last year.
āBoom! $2.4 million straight ā Alan Keating is back,ā Soto exclaimed. āLeaves Rahul with crumbs.ā
Rahul called it a night immediately after, racking up his final $150,000 and leaving the table. For Keating, the second-largest pot in Hustler Casino Live history helped him get even in the moment but was part of propelling him to a win of more than $2 million over the course of his time on the 2024 Million Dollar Game.
