Kassis Sets Up Pickering

[user75032]
[user75032]
Last night, Jamie Pickering was savage on the money bubble, opening dozens of pots with preflop raises and playing very aggressively after the flop. That hasn't worked as well for Pickering today. He raised to 24,000 from middle position and was called, in position, by George Kassis. The flop came {7-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} and brought the minimum bet, 8,000, from Pickering. Kassis called.

On the turn {K-Diamonds}, Pickering made it 80,000 to go. Kassis moved in over the top of that raise for an additional 110,000 that Pickering had no intention to call. He folded his hand. As Kassis dragged the pot to climb to 380,000 in chips, he flashed {7-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} for a flopped set.

Pickering has slipped to 455,000.
