El Sayed Takes One From Brammer

There is an interesting dynamic forming over on the far end of the room where the 2010 WPT Amneville Champion Sam El Sayed and PartyPoker qualifier Chris Brammer are seated directly next to each other.

The highly aggressive El Sayed opens the betting with a raise to 250 from the cutoff seat and Chris Brammer, who was in possession of the button, tosses in the necessary chips to make the call. The flop is [As] [9d] [3d] and El Sayed wastes very little time in making a continuation bet of 325. The young Brit is prepared to pay this price and he make the call.

The fourth community card is the innocuous looking [6h] and after taking a quick sideways glance at his opponent, El Sayed bets again, this time making it 900 to play. No sooner had the bet landed on the felt, Brammer had flicked his cards towards the dealer and El Sayed helped himself to an early pot.
