Glaser drew one for the final draw and Kessler stood pat.
Allen Kessler: 9x8x7x5x3x
Benny Glaser: 7x6x4x3x/Xx
Kessler revealed nine-eight and Glaser threw his arms up in frustration, presumably after breaking a hand on the third draw that had Kessler beat. Glaser drew a ten for a final hand of 10x7x6x4x3x and Kessler secured a key double up, leaving Glaser as a short stack.
"That was an advanced play" Kessler stated as he scooped the pot.
