Kelly Coming Back

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

The board read {6-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{k-Hearts} and there was about 65,000 in the middle already. Both Anton Morgenstern in the small blind and JP Kelly in late position checked.

The river completed the board with the {q-Spades}, Morgenstern bet 32,000 and Kelly considered his options. After about 30 seconds, he decided to call. Morgenstern tabled {Q-Hearts}{8-Spades} for two pair, queens and sixes, with the king-kicker on the board. Kelly, however, showed {A-Spades}{q-Clubs} for the same two pair but with the ace-kicker in his hand took the pot.
