In the "craziest hand" Allen Kessler has seen today, Sterling Savill opened to 8,000 in early position and Michael Trivett and the button both called. Kessler then three-bet shoved from the big blind and Savill four-bet re-shoved behind him. Trivett also moved all in and the button went in the tank before folding.
Allen Kessler:
Michael Trivett:
Sterling Savill:
The flop came to give Kessler a big lead with a king-high flush.
"Who has diamonds?" asked Kessler.
"You do!" someone at the table replied.
The runout of secured the main pot for Kessler for a triple-up, while Savill improved to a pair of fours to win the side pot and eliminate Trivett.
