Johnson Straightens Out Kessler
Level 14
Seven Card Stud
Marco Johnson: XxXx/8?6?J?9?/Xx
Allen Kessler: XxXx/10?A?4?4?/Xx
Marco Johnson and Allen Kessler were heads-up on sixth street when Kessler bet, Johnson raised all in, and Kessler called.
Kessler turned over 5?9? and Johnson showed Q?Q?. "You look first. I have the better hand and the better redraw," Johnson told Kessler.
Kessler turned over the 5? to make two pair as Johnson squeezed out his last card, showing the 10? to make a straight and double up.
