Kassam Flushes Opponent Early

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

The board showed {3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{3-Hearts} and over 12,000 had amassed in the pot.

The player in the small blind fired out 4,000. Rehman Kassam then raised to 12,000 from middle position. His opponent called shortly after.

Kassam flipped over {j-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} for a flush, and took down the pot, after his opponent mucked his hand.

Saunders Back to Starting Stack

Level 1 : 100/200, 0 ante

Trevor Saunders raised to 400 from middle position and was called by Suzy Khoueis in the cutoff as well as the player on the button and big blind.

All four players checked the {2-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{k-Hearts} flop before the {4-Spades} dropped on the turn.

A bet of 700 was all that was needed from Saunders to take down the pot after his opponents mucked their hands.
