Kassam Runs Into a Bigger Ace

Nível 22 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante

Soon after the final five tables were formed and the pay jump was secured, the next all-in showdown unfolded.

It was Rehman Kassam who got it in for around 930,000 preflop only to find himself dominated by Kasparas Klezys.

Rehman Kassam: A♠Q♣
Kasparas Klezys: A♦K♥

The A♥K♦8♣ flop left the Brit on the ropes and the 7♥ turn sealed his fate, making the 2♥ river a formality.

Just prior, Christian Rudolph had raised to 85,000 and then folded when Anson Tsang three-bet to 415,000 with 10,000 behind in the big blind.
