Johnson Drops to a Short Stack
Level 28
Stud 8 or Better
James Johnson: K?6?2? / K?4?4?6?
Andrew Kelsall: 7?3? / A?2?2?4? / A?
With 480,000 in bets in the middle, Andrew Kelsall was the one to apply pressure against James Johnson with a low board showing. He bet seventh without seeing his final card and Johnson called to reveal kings up. Kelsall peeled the final card and it was another ace to make aces up to scoop the entire pot.
"Make sure it is right," Johnson told the dealer with regards to the chips and then showed plenty of frustration.
James Johnson: A?6x / 5?8?2?5? / Xx
Nick Kost: A?K? / Q?J?9?8? / 4?
He then took on Nick Kost and called down with a low to earn half the pot, while Kost clarified "I started with four to a royal" as he earned the high portion with a flush.
