Kassin check-called a bet here and the {6-Diamonds} hit the turn. Kassin again check-called, prompting the dealer to flip over the {2-Clubs} . Kassin would lead here and Weinberger would call. Kassin tabled his {q-Diamonds} {3-Hearts} {a-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} the straight winning the high and the sixty-four low giving him the scoop.
