Daniel Tafur had been cruising through the day, knocking players out left, right, and center, at his table until Frank Kassela joined his table.

- fold on fifth
The action was checked to Kassela on fourth who threw in a bet "just in case" as he said. Both Tafur and another opponent made the call. On fifth, Tafur made a pair of queens and led out with a bet. Kassela was the only player to call as they went heads-up to sixth.
Tafur checked to Kassela who showed four cards to a wheel and Kassela tossed in another bet. Tafur called and then checked again on seventh. Kassela bet again and Tafur let out a grumble.
"I don't think he's raising you," Esther Taylor pointed out at the table. Tafur indeed just called and Kassela turned over ![]()
![]()
for aces up and a seven perfect. Tafur flashed the ![]()
![]()
before his cards went to the muck.
"What street didn't you like there?" Kyle Miaso asked Kassela.
