Kassouf Takes Early Pot Against Pham

Ryan Lashmar

Level 1 : Blinds 100/100, 100 ante

Yannick Autaa opened to 300 from middle position and received calls from Will Kassouf in the cutoff and Hong Pham in the big blind.

The flop came 6♥5♥4♥ and action checked around to Kassouf who bet 700. Only Pham made the call.

Pham check-called another bet from Kassouf on the J♠ turn, this time for 2,000.

On the 7♦ river Pham checked, Kassouf bet 4,000 and Pham called.

Kassouf turned over a straight with 8♦7♥ which was enough to take down a nice early pot.
