Kenna James Gets Opponent to Muck Pocket Queens

A middle position (MP) player raised to 1,800 before the flop and was called by Kenna James from the button. The flop came {K-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs} and both players checked.

The turn brought the {4-Spades}, and here's where things got interesting. The MP player checked and Kenna bet 4,200. James' opponent then picked up his entire stack and held it in the air. Upon seeing this, James grabbed his remaining 4,600 and threw it into the pot.

The floor was called to determine whether or not Kenna's all-in bet was binding and they ruled it was not. Kenna's opponent, after having the clock called on him by another player at the table, said to Kenna, "that was good, if you did that on purpose," and showed pocket Queens before throwing them into the muck.

Kenna raked the pot, showing {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}, for nothing but a flush draw and gutshot straight draw.
