Kassa Bluffs it All
The board was out and there was at least 50,000 in the middle. Getnet Kassa (first to act) used a couple of time-bank cards before declaring his all in for 43,000. His opponent looked bewildered as he used all of his own time bank cards before reluctantly folding. Kassa kindly relayed the rest of the action to PokerNews as he stacked his newly-acquired chips.
Kassa had limped preflop and called a raise. On the flop, he check-raised as he put his opponent on ace-king and had the intention of trying to take the pot by repping big. He was called. On the turn, he barreled and his opponent flat-called again.
Kassa told PokerNews that he had ace-high with in the hole and continued his line by setting the rest in on the river. He is now closing in on a six-figure stack as a result of that hand.
