Kessler Doubles Up

Level 6
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Pot Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Allen Kessler raised to 2,300 from the cutoff before Leonard August made it 5,900 to go in the small blind. Kessler complied with the extra chips and both players drew one card.

August then made a bet of 10,000 chips, sending Kessler into the tank for a bit. Ultimately, he stuck in his stack of 16,800 chips and August made the call.

August stood pat and Kessler drew one before both players stood pat on the final draw.

August tabled 8x6x5x4x2x, but was narrowly beat by Kessler, who showed 8x6x4x3x2x for the winning hand.

Kessler went on to complain about the game choice, leading to several players telling him to be quiet in no uncertain terms.
