Kassouf Applying Pressure
Level 5
: 150/300, 50 ante
With about 7,000 chips already in the pot and the board reading 
, the player in the small blind bet 2,500, and William Kassouf raised to 7,325 from middle position. The player in the hijack folded, and the small blind went into the tank for several minutes. He asked Kassouf how much he had behind, which was 11,600.
"Whatever you have, you're behind," said Kassouf.
His opponent believed him and folded 
face-up. Kassouf tabled 
for two pair, nines and sixes as he took the pot.
"Whenever there's a nine on the flop, just check it down," Kassouf said.
