Kessler Cracks Queens

Level 8 : 250/500, 50 ante

Allen Kessler had been holding steady at around 70,000 for the last few levels, but he recently dropped a bit. Fortunately for him, he got some chips back by cracking pocket queens.

We caught the action with around 3,000 in the pot and a flop of {2-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}. An early-position player fired out 2,200 and received a call from Kessler, who was in the cutoff. Kessler then called a bet of 4,000 on the {A-Clubs} turn before both players checked the {5-Diamonds} river.

The bettor tabled {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds} and seemed none too pleased when Kessler rolled over the winning {A-Spades}{4-Spades}.
