Kennedy Stays Afloat

Level 12 : 2,000/4,000, 400 ante

Darren Kennedy came in raising to 9,000 from the button, and Michael Binger moved all in from the big blind. Kennedy tanked for a while before calling all in for 30,500 with {Q-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}, and Binger's {A-Spades} {J-Hearts} was poised for the knockout.

Poised, that is, until the dealer ran a cruel {7-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {7-Spades} flop to all but lock up Kennedy's double. The turn {4-Clubs} sealed the deal, and the river {A-Clubs} means Kennedy is back to 61,000.

"This is absurd," said a very tilty Michael Binger. "How does it happen every time? That's five times..."
