Fadersen Firing

We noticed that Michael "WaGe N WaRz" Fadersen was sitting behind the largest stack at his table, so we managed to find out some details about the big hand that got him to the point he is at now.

Apparently the hand in question began when Jesse McKenzie opened the pot with a raise preflop. Another player looked like he tried to raise it on McKenzie's left, but didn't put in enough and so it was a call. Fadersen called out of the small blind and Liam O'Rourke also called in the big blind.

The flop fell {k-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{3-} and O'Rourke checked and McKenzie led with a bet. The player on McKenzie's left called, along with Fadersen, while O'Rourke got out of the way. A {4-Diamonds} hit the turn and McKenzie checked. The other led with a bet and Fadersen called. With McKenzie out of the way, a brick was dealt on the river. This time the remaining player shoved all in, having Fadersen covered. Fadersen apparently thought for a long time before making the call.

Fadersen: {k-}{q-}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

And with that, Fadersen now site behind a stack of around double the start of the day.
