Solid Start For Kassela

Level 11

Pot-Limit Omaha

Alexandre Luneau opened to 6,000 from the cutoff and found calls from Jason Mercier in the small blind and Frank Kassela in the big blind. The flop came down {K-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and all three players checked to see the {8-Diamonds} on fourth street. Mercier led at the pot for 10,800 and Kassela came along. Luneau, the original raiser, opted to let his cards go.

Mercier and Kassela were heads up to the see the {9-Hearts} pair the board on the river. Mercier slowed with a check and Kassela tossed 25,000 forward. Mercier thought for about 30 seconds before throwing his hand away. Kassela took down the pot and now has about 437,000 in chips.
