Kassela's Two Pair Are Better

There had been some action preflop that saw Frank Kassela and the player in the button take in a flop of {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. Kassela led out with a bet of 7,500, getting a call from the button.

The turn was the {4-Diamonds} and Kassela check-called a bet of 10,000. Both players checked the {q-Clubs} on teh river and the player in the button said "two pair." Tomko replied that he also had two pair and showed {4-Hearts}{7-Clubs}. His two pair were better than his opponent's and he scooped chips to build his stack to 270,000.
