Hu Flops a Set to Crack Kelly's Aces
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Benjamin Hu opened 55,000 in early position and Steven Kelly called next to act before Thomas Carman put in a raise to 210,000 from the small blind. Hu called and Kelly jammed for 320,000. Carman asked if the door was open, but the dealer confirmed it was not as he made the call. Hu called as well.
The K♠9♥2♦ flop hit the felt, and Kelly checked to Hu who fired 150,000 into the middle. Kelly tanked for about 30 seconds before mucking his hand. Hu started clapping as he tabled his hand.
Steven Kelly: A♣A♦ 
Benjamin Hu: 9♣9♠
Hu flopped a set of nines to crack the aces of Kelly and the 4♥ turn and Q♣ river changed nothing.
