Kessler's Quads Cooler Hwang

Level 4 : 300/500, 500 ante
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Allen Kessler, Fredric Hwang and another opponent went three ways to a {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{7-Hearts} flop in a single-raised pot. The action checked through all three players, bringing the {3-Diamonds} on the turn.

The out-of-position third player bet 6,000, Hwang raised to 12,000, Kessler called, and the original bettor folded. The river brought a {3-Spades}, Hwang led for 15,000, and Kessler raised to 35,000. Hwang then shoved all in over the top for the last of his stack, and Kessler snap called.

It was the sickest of coolers for Hwang, who flopped top boat with {7-Spades}{7-Clubs} but saw the bad news when Kessler instantly tabled his {4-Clubs}{4-Spades} after calling. The hand sent Hwang to the rail, and made Kessler one of the top stacks in the field as Level 4 continues.
