Jimmy Kebe has chipped up some more since we last walked past his table. He was in a hand just now that began with an early position open to 600 and Kebe called in middle position. There were two other callers, one behind and one in the small blind, making it four-handed to the flop.
It was a draw-heavy ![]()
![]()
flop and when the preflop raiser checked, Kebe made a small 700 bet. It got two players out but the initial raiser came along.
The
turn brought a one card straight possibility as well as a second flush draw and both players checked. The last card out was the
and when checked to again, Kebe put 7,100 over the line, almost double the pot. It convinced his opponent to pass and Kebe adds some more to his stack.

There was an under-the-gun open to 500 and a flat call from Fadi Ghosen on his left. Jason Wheeler, also in early position, sat to Ghosen's left and raised it up to 2,900, which got quick folds from around the table. Once the initial raiser had passed, Ghosen made a quick all-in for 8,700 and Wheeler called just as fast.
