Kroesen Cracks Kings
Ricky Kroesen raised to 4,200 from early position and was met with an all-in reraise to 40,000 by Kahle Burns in middle position. The rest of the field folded back to Kroesen, who made a halfhearted call.
Showdown
Kroesen: 
Burns: 
Kroesen didn't seem surprised with his predicament, which didn't improve on the 
flop. Kroesen was in need of an ace or running cards to stay alive, and wouldn't you know it, the 
spiked on the turn. The 
river changed nothing and Kroesen sent a shellshocked Burns to the rail while increasing his stack to approximately 100,000.
