Kassam Comes From Behind to Double
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Rehman Kassam had a three-bet of 225,000 in front of him from the button, leaving himself just 50,000 behind. Timo Kamphues in early position then moved all in and Kassam spent a few minutes looking at the tournament clock waiting for a pay jump before tossing in his last chips.
Rehman Kassam: A♥Q♣
Timo Kamphues: A♠K♣
Kassam wouldn't have to worry about the pay jump, as the Q♥J♠8♠Q♦3♦ board gave him trips and a double up.
