Murgia Flops a Boat; Leaves Kassouf With Crumbs
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
William Kassouf opened to 6,000 from the hijack and action folded to Luca Murgia in the big blind, who shoved for 42,500 total.
"I don't know how you play, I just sat down," Kassouf said as he pondered a call. "I'd rather be the one shoving, not calling."
Kassouf eventually called, leaving himself just 500 behind to put Murgia at risk.
Luca Murgia: 9♦9♥
William Kassouf: 10♥10♠
Kassouf was well ahead with his tens, but the A♣A♦9♣ flop improved Murgia to a full house and left Kassouf drawing slim.
The 3♠ turn and K♠ river failed to improve Kassouf and Murgia doubled up.
