Michael Lech Fades a Ton of Outs

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 200 ante

Jonathan Kettle opened the action for 3,600, Michael Lech called, Chip Pettit called and the player in the small blind moved all in for 17,000. Scott Koiner flatted from the big blind, Kettle mucked and Lech moved in over the top for an additional 23,000. Pettit mucked and Koiner called after some thought.

Lech: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}
Koiner: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Small Blind: {K-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}

The board ran {10-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{4-Spades}{J-Spades}{A-Diamonds}, Lech's kings held - putting him at the century mark - and the small blind was eliminated.

It will take at least two bullets if Maxx Coleman is going to defend his title here at WinStar River Poker Series. He was just eliminated in a hand we didn't catch after grinding a short stack for a few hours.
