Kelley Takes Out Savakinas
Level 16
Pot-Limit Omaha
Michael Savakinas limped the hijack for 2,500 as did Fu Wong on the button. In the small blind, Matthew Kelley made it 10,000 to go and both limpers called.
On the J♠8♣5♠ flop, Kelley led for 14,000 and Savakinas responded with an all-in for 38,000. Wong got out of the way and Kelley called.
Michael Savakinas: 8♥6♣5♥4♣
Matthew Kelley: K♠Q♠Q♦J♦
Savakinas flopped two pair and Kelley had a flush draw. There was no waiting for Kelley as the 4♠ came on the turn. The 7♦ river did not rescue Savakinas as he exited the tournament area.
