Kassela Loses Some

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Frank Kassela raised to 325 from the hijack and was only called by the player in the small blind. The flop came {j-Spades}{3-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} and the player in the small blind called Kassela's 500 continuation bet.

They both checked through the {k-Hearts} on the turn to the {3-Diamonds} on the river. The player in the small blind bet 600, Kassela raised to 1,600. His opponent took some extra time but then called. Kassela tabled {K-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for two pair, kings and treys with the jack-kicker on the board. The player in the small blind had him beat, though, with {K-Clubs}{J-Clubs} for the higher two pair of kings and jacks.

"Paul! I already lost a quarter of our stack!" Kassela shouted over to his teammate Paul Clements. Clements just shrugged.

"I even slow played it!" Kassela shouted again. Clements just laughed.
