Kassam Triples After Cracking Aces
Level 24
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Rehman Kassam shoved for his last 725,000 from the cutoff and was called by Joseph Antar in the small blind. Ehsan Amiri then shoved from the big blind and Antar let his hand go after a lengthy tank.
Rehman Kassam: 8♣7♣
Ehsan Amiri: A♠A♦
Kassam was in rough shape against Amiri's aces, but had one of the statistically better hands to crack aces.
The J♣4♦4♣3♣K♣ runout left Kassam with a flush and he tripled his short stack.
