Kessler Gets It In "Dead" But Gets There To Scoop

Niveau 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

Action was recapped by Allen Kessler as his stack had grown significantly since the start of the day.

Kessler had seen a flop from the button and both players had gotten in their chips on a flop reading A♣2♠9♦, with Kessler having put himself all in for 38,000.

Allen Kessler: A♠Q♣7♣3♣2♥
Opponent: A♦9♠5♥4♦3♥

Kessler needed to catch a queen, running sevens, or running clubs to survive and he caught that on the Q♦A♥ runout to double up.

"Wow," he exclaimed, "I got it in drawing basically dead."

The board ran out Q♦7♠ and the sixes full of eights and nut low was good enough for Vaughn to take both halves of the pot and Orlove was eliminated from the tournament.

Orlov Loving Life

Niveau 16 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With the flop already out and reading J♣4♣Q♦, a short-stacked Tom Koral was all in and facing Alexandr Orlov in the small blind.

Tom Koral: A♥6♦6♣3♠2♥
Alexandr Orlov: A♠Q♥9♠5♥4♠

Orlov had flopped two pair and the 9♣ on the turn meant there would be no low. After the river bricked for Koral, he was sent to the rail.
