Hoglund Jr. Can't Shake Kenney
On the last hand before the break...
Steve O'Dwyer opened to 48,000 from the cutoff seat, and Tyler Kenney flatted on the button. In the big blind, Thomas Hoglund Jr. squeezed in a raise to 140,000, and now only Kenney continued with another call.
Heads up, the two men took a flop. Hoglund Jr. continued out with 150,000 more chips, and Kenney was right there with the call. The action repeated on the turn with Kenney calling another 150,000, and both men checked the river. Kenney showed for top pair, and Hoglund Jr. mentioned something about making a move as he flashed his airball . "The turn made it interesting," he said, but his chips didn't like that pot very much at all. He's left with 335,000 now, while Kenney climbs all the way up to 1.85 million.
