KESSLER DOUBLES


Put to the test for his tournament life on the turn, @AllenKessler contemplates whether he's good, if his challenger has a made hand and if so, whether calling off his stack with a draw is worth it.

The board is  Kc Kc Kc Kc ...

Kessler stacks his remaining chips and makes the call, showing Kc Kc for top pair, queen kicker - and a flush draw in case his challenger shows a 7.

Well, you see, what happened was ..

Kc Kc for the challenger and suddenly Kessler is only dodging three Kings for a double, and three 7's to a chop.

River does hit his challenger ... but it is Kc to give Kessler two pair and almost a starting stack again.

Allen Kessler - 24,000

Level - 9
BB Ante - 800
Blinds - 400/800
Entries - 202
