Kassela Turning Things Around

Frank Kassela has been on a bit of a downward trend over the last level or two but he's just turned things around a little in the right direction after winning a recent pot.

Kassela opened with a raise from the button to 5,500 with just the big blind making the call. The flop landed {Q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds} and both player checked. The turn was the {J-Spades} and again it was check, check. The river was the {6-Hearts} and for a third time the big blind checked to Kassela who finally tossed out a bet of 10,000. The big blind made the call.

"Two pair..." declared Kassela as he opened {6-Clubs}{5-Spades}. His opponent flashed {Q-}{10-}. Kassela is back up to 150,000.
