Kennedy Hits the River to Double

Level 21 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

On a flop of {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{7-Spades}, James Kennedy and an opponent on the button got their chips in the middle.

James Kennedy: {k-Clubs}{j-Clubs}
Button: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}

Kennedy had a flush draw and needed to hit against his opponent's pair of aces. He missed the {3-Spades} turn, but the {7-Clubs} on the river completed his draw and secured him the double up.

The stacks were counted and Kennedy was all in for 275,000, leaving his opponent with only 25,000.

Elliott Has One Wish for Day 3

Level 21 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Doyle Elliott and Edward "Texas" Zidd are seated next to each other on Table #112 and have been exchanging friendly barbs.

"If we're sitting next to each other tomorrow, I quit," Elliott joked as the rest of the table burst out laughing.

In his last hand, Elliott raised pre-flop and everyone folded. "I should've called you," Zidd said. "Keep you honest."
