Frank Kassela and Daniel Strelitz both called the bring-in. "Punish the limpers," Calvin Anderson said as he completed, with both opponents calling.
A bet on fourth street got rid of Strelitz, but Kassela stuck around and called another bet on fifth. Kassela checked on sixth.
"You can't get quads. I've got the blockers," Kassela told Anderson as they were both showing trips. "You only have two options. I guess you could open-fold. It was a strong check."
Anderson checked behind before Kassela bet out on seventh. Anderson called and Kassela showed for 9-7-4-3-2 to win the pot.
"Sick value. Sick twisted value," Kassela added at the end of the hand.

On sixth street Kassela check-called a bet from Anderson, with the same action repeating on seventh street. Kassela's eight-four was no good against the six-five of Anderson and the chip leader added another massive pot to his stack.
