Event 13: Shameful

After opening for 35,000, James Kinney watched as a short-stacked Jeff Yarchever three-bet-jammed for 127,000 more while holding the button.

Kinney deliberated for at least two minutes, and as he did so Yarchever told him "there's no shame in folding." The bait did the trick, as Kinney ultimately decided to cut out a calling stack and put the chips - and Yarchever - at risk.

Showdown:

Yarchever: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Kinney: {q-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

Kinney had made a rather loose call with just queen high, and he was crushed by Yarchever's cowboys in the hole. When the flop delivered a set of kings to Yarchever - who has six-figures worth of recorded live scores - the {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} seemed to lock things up for the experienced resident of Laguna Beach, California.

"Gimme a ten," was Kinney's plea, by the turn card came {6-Diamonds} instead. "That's not a king..."

River: {10-Clubs}

"That is!" exclaimed Kinney, his gin card having arrived on the river to give him the winning Broadway straight. He now sits with more than 800,000, while Yarchever will have to wait for another chance at glory. Kinney followed up this elimination by busting another short-stacked player, this time taking his {9-}{2-} offsuit up against {K-}{8-} and spiking a nine on the river.

According to Yarchever, the loss tonight won't be slowing him down anytime soon, as he plans to take down the biggest tournament on the Borgata Winter Poker Open schedule.

"I'm gonna win this Main Event anyway," he told us. "Mark it down!"
