State Scores Double Off Kassouf
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
The action was picked up in a pot of roughly 90,000 on a completed board showing A♦4♠3♦K♠5♥. William Kassouf was deep in the tank on the button after Adrian State moved all in for 31,500 from the small blind.
"You have a missed flush draw or like ace-deuce here," said Kassouf as he asked the dealer to spread the pot.
After close to two minutes, a player at the table called the clock and Kassouf was given 30 more seconds to act. As the clock hit two seconds, Kassouf tossed in chips for the call. State rolled over A♠2♠ for the rivered straight and the exact hand Kassouf predicted.
"I knew it had to be that or missed diamonds," said Kassouf as he shook his head and recounted his stack.
