Keating Falls Near the End of the Night
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Alex Keating moved all in for his last 200,000 from early position as action folded around to Diego Montone who called in the small blind.
Alex Keating: Q♠9♠
Diego Montone: 10♣10♦
Both players hit two pair on the K♣9♦K♥ flop, but Montone was still ahead with his pocket pair and Keating improved no further on the J♣ turn or 7♥ river. He went around the table giving his tablemates a fist bump before making his exit with just a few minutes left in the night.
