After busting (twice) on day 1b, William Kassouf is back in the building and looking to have a more successful time than he had yesterday.
He bust to Lazer Gjergji holding ace-ten against the Czech player's pocket king's, and failed to get there.
Starting his second attempt at this tournament Kassouf is fine voice.
"I raise under the gun it means I have it," he said, doing exactly that.
The player on the button eventually folded. "Do you always have it?" he asked.
"Always," came the reply, and Kassouf was up and running.
