McKenzie Keeps Crushing

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 100 ante

Jesse McKenzie has been crushing early on Day 2.

He recently moved his stack towards 200,000 after sending Barry O'Callaghan to the rail.

O'Callaghan's chips went in preflop. He held {a-Spades}{q-Hearts} and was up against McKenzie's {10-Clubs}{10-Spades}.

The dealer flipped over a {9-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop and O'Callaghan got out of his seat.

Then a {10-Hearts} hit the turn and O'Callaghan started leaving, hesitating slightly to watch a {7-Clubs} complete the board on the river.

Interestingly, McKenzie sat as low as 5,000 late on Day 1c, then picked up pocket aces in back-to-back hands and is now the chip leader.
