The Ladies Love Kevin Ellis

Level 6 : 300/600, 600 ante

With around 16,000 in the pot and a board reading {6-Spades}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{7-Spades}, three-time MSPT champ Matt Kirby checked from the big blind and Kevin Ellis bet all in for 13,200 from the under-the-gun position. Kirby called and discovered the bad news.

Matt Kirby: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Kevin Ellis: {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Ellis held the superior pocket pair and he held when the harmless {7-Diamonds} paired the board on the river.
