McKeehen Faces a Jam

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 9 : Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante

Picking up the action on the flop, Joe McKeehen on the button was involved in a hand with a player in the big blind. With the board reading 9?3?J? both players checked through to the turn.

The turn came 2? and the big blind checked again. McKeehen bet out 6,000 and was met by an all in from his opponent. The former WSOP Main Event winner did not take long to get out of the way, taking a small hit to his stack late in the day.
