Kessler Quarters the Table

Tyler Boyer

Level 8 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Allen Kessler called 800 from early position and the player in middle position raised to 2,500. The player on the button called, as did Kessler to see a flop.

The flop came 5?10?6? and after Kessler checked the player in middle position bet the pot for 9,500. The player on the button went all in for 10,400, before Kessler repotted it to put the middle position player all in for another 12,400.

Middle Position: A?K?J?J?2? All in
Button: A?K?10?5?3? All in
Allen Kessler: A?5?4?4?2?

With two players at risk, when the board ran out 3? on the turn and 6? on the river, it was Allen Kessler with best high hand, with a 6 high straight. Kessler and the player in middle position chopped the low, with both players holding ace-deuce. The player on the button was eliminated.
