Judd Trumps Kassouf
Level 15
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Matthew Judd came into play short here on Day 2. With 123 players left, however, he is starting to come to the fore, and the 888Poker player is up to the average stack after taking on fellow Brit William Kassouf.
Judd and Kassouf got it all-in pre-flop and it was Judd who had the goods, holding 
to Kassouf's 
. Those pocket kings held and Judd just opened pre-flop from middle position in the same orbit to 11,000. He was called by the player in the big blind and then c-bet the flop of 
to take another pot with very little resistance. Judd may be cruising, but he won't get to take on Kassouf soon as the pair have been split by the table being broken up. Kassouf will have to wait to get some revenge.
