Kessler Doubles Through Wong
Level 18
: Limits 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Action was picked up just before the first draw. Allen Kessler drew two from the small blind while Danny Wong drew one from early position. Kessler then bet, Wong raised and Kessler, who had 5,000 behind, called off to put himself at risk.
Kessler drew one for both of the last two draws while Wong drew two and then drew two again.
Allen Kessler: 7x6x4x2x 
Danny Wong: 5x3x2x
Wong drew first and picked up Kx10x meaning Kessler only had to avoid an ace or pair to double up. The Qx on the last draw was clean for Kessler and he extended his tournament life.
