Allen Eliminates Little

Matthew Pitt

Level 9 : 400/800, 0 ante

Kevin Allen was first to act from his seat on the button and he raised twice the size of the big blind to 1,600. The small blind ducked out of the way, leaving Jonathan Little to defend his big blind.

A flop reading was initially checked by Little, leaving the door open for Allen to bet 900. Little then check-raised all-in for around 3,600 and Allen beat him into the pot with a call.

Allen:
Little:

Allen had flopped a straight and had a redraw to a diamond flush. Little on the other hand held a pair of kings and needed running cards to either a full house or a flush. The turn bricked and Little stood and was on his way out of the tournament area before the meaningless river card was dealt.
