Lights Out for Lights Out

Frank Kassela is wearing "Lights Out" Poker gear for today's match. Seems fitting: the curtain has fallen on his tournament. In a limped pot, Kassela led a {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds} flop. Bord check-raised all in with {6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, a flush draw; Kassela called with {10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}. Bord's flush filled after turna nd river cards of {a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}. Each player stood up, shook hands, and then Kassela headed for the exit.

Bord will return tomorrow.
