Small One for Ashby
Limit Hold'em
Action folded to Bruno Fitoussi in the cutoff and he put in a raise. Lyle Berman made the call from the button, and then Richard Ashby three-bet from the small blind. Both Fitoussi and Berman made the call, but both players folded when Ashby bet the 
flop.
Despite winning that small pot, Ashby is down considerably from the last time we checked in with him.

The turn was the

and both players checked.
"Sixes," Arieh announced after which Kassela quickly turned over 
. Arieh mucked and Kassela raked in the pot.
