Kelly Shoves Again

First in from the cutoff seat, Chance Kornuth opened to 6,200, and action folded around to the big blind. JP Kelly was in that seat, and he three-bet to 18,500 straight. When it came back to Kornuth, he reraised to 46,800, Kelly shoved for 186,500, and Kornuth double-checked his hole cards and quickly made the call.

Showdown
Kornuth: {J-Diamonds} {J-Hearts}
Kelly: {A-Spades} {K-Diamonds}

Let's flip a coin for more than 150 big blinds, shall we?

The flop was barren for the Team PokerStars Pro, coming out {Q-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} {4-Hearts}, and the turn {Q-Spades} didn't help him either. The river {K-Clubs}, though, was quite the game changer. Kelly spikes his pair to lock up the pot, snagging more than half of Kornuth's chips in the process.

That pot would have put Kornuth awfully close to the half-million chip mark, but the king on the river means he'll cut out the losses and drop to about 160,000.

Kelly, on the other hand, has skyrocketed up the scoresheet to a very healthy 375,000 now.
