Calamusa Gets Big Double Up Early
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Action picked up on the river with a large pot brewing in a hand between Pierre Calamusa and Yi Klassen.
With about 30,000 in the pot and the board reading 7?2?9?3?2?, Klassen moved all in for 72,000, putting Calamusa to the test for all of his chips, who had 56,600 behind.
Calamusa went deep into the tank, clearly faced with a difficult decision.
"You show me?" Calamusa asked, as he contemplated what to do. Klassen nodded her head yes.
Eventually the clock was called and the tournament director came over to begin the countdown. With just a couple seconds left, Calamusa made the call and tabled K?K? for two pair, kings and deuces.
Yi showed A?Q?, and the sizable pot was pushed Calamusa's way.
