Allen Kessler was getting dangerously low in chips in a three-way hand on fourth street. Richard Sklar bet, Allen Kessler raised, Andrey Zhigalov got out of the way and Sklar raised enough to put Kessler all in,
Kessler had a pair of threes while Sklar was looking good for the low. The next two cards didn't change much and kept possibilities alive as Kessler was still live for the low heading into seventh street but could also be eliminated if Sklar hit a better pair.
The river was a blank for both players and Kessler stayed alive by chopping the pot with his pair of threes staying the best high hand throughout.
