Kassouf and Douch Bust as Couch Scoops Huge Pot
Badr Douch raised from under the gun and Cameron Couch three-bet to 9,500 from the small blind. Will Kassouf called in the big blind and Douch called.
The flop came 9♠10♠Q♦ and Couch checked. Kassouf fired out a large bet of 21,000, around half of his stack, and Badr Douch moved all in for 45,000. Couch moved all in over the top for 61,500.
"There's no f*cking way I'm folding this," said Kassouf as he pushed the rest of his chips in the middle and players flipped their cards.
Badr Douch: 10♦9♦
Will Kassouf: Q♠Q♥
Cameron Couch: K♠J♠
Douch had two pair, Kassouf a set, but Couch had flopped the world with the nut straight and flush redraw. Kassouf shouted out for a queen or ten, his outs for a full house, but the turn was the J♣ and river the 3♦.
"So sick, wow!", said Kassouf.
Couch held with his straight to win the pot, nearly tripling his stack and eliminating both Douch and Kassouf from the tournament.
