Brammer Avoids Disaster, Kashani Extends Chip Lead
Level 34
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Christopher Brammer made it 600,000 from the button with A♦K♦ and Arian Kashani three-bet to 1,875,000 from the small blind holding A♥A♣. Brammer then took around ninety seconds before he made it 3,300,000, and Kashani rechecked his cards before he called.
On the 10♥9♣Q♥ flop, Kashani checked it over to Brammer, who checked it back to see the 7♥ drop on the turn. Kashani checked again, as did Brammer.
A 2♥ filled out the board and Kashani shoved with his nut flush, and Brammer had no choice but to muck his Big Slick.
He doesn't know it yet, but Brammer will be happy he isn't out of the tournament when he finds out what Kashani had.
