The Kassouf Show Will Go A Little Longer
Level 32
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Michael Garner moved all in from middle position as the table folded around to Will Kassouf in the big blind who (uncharacteristically) snap-called for 2,550,000.
Will Kassouf: A♠K♦
Michael Garner: 7♣7♦
Kassouf needed to survive the coin flip to stay alive, and he found an ace on the A♥J♣5♣ flop to take the lead. The turn was the 5♠, while Kassouf ended up with two pair on the K♣ river to earn the double up and knock Garner down to an extreme short stack.
"If I have a Red Bull or coffee, in half an hour this table is finished," Kassouf said as he called out for cocktails.
