Kassela Left With a Chip and a Chair
Level 13
Big O
On a flop of K?J?3?, Frank Kassela bet the pot and was called by Frank Crivello only for them to see the A? on the turn. Kassela bet the pot again and then called the shove by Crivello for nearly even stacks.
Frank Crivello: Q?J?10?8?7?
Frank Kassela: A?K?10?9?6?
Both players had two flush draws to go with their hands but Crivello was in the lead with broadway. Nothing changed with the 4? river and Crivello doubled for 99,500, leaving Kassela on a nub. At almost the same time, Taylor Paur lost the remainder of his severe short stack as he couldn't beat the A?A?9?6? of Dutch Boyd in a regular PLO hand.
