JP Kelly has bumped into a big pair for the third time in the last hour, and no he's not in a plastic surgeon's office.
He had opened to 7,000 with Masa Kagawa making it 22,000 from the big blind. Kelly called the raise and the flop came out .
Kagawa bet 27,000 and Kelly made the call to see a turn.
Kagawa now fired out like 80,000 with about 60,000 which had Kelly tanking before setting his opponent all-in. Kagawa instantly called with to Kelly's and held on the river.
Kagawa moved up to 350,000 while Kelly dropped to 150,000
We've heard our fair share of ridiculous questions from the poker media, and we sometimes cringe at the thought of what must be going through the interviewer's mind. This week in London, Glo took a hands-on approach to the matter, asking some of your favorite players some of the worst questions we've ever heard in an interview. Check it out:
We scurried over to see what the fuss was about, and it was about aces versus kings. It was Jeff Sarwer on the good side of things with his crushing his opponent's .
"You've even got both of his flushes covered," someone noticed.
The flop was a raggy , and the man with kings was visibly frustrated with the predicament he had found himself in. The turn made him even grumpier, but the appeared on the river like a beacon of salvation. "YES!" he yelled.
Next door, Sarwer was just smirking wryly. "Don't worry about it," he said with sincerity. "I'm used to it." He could only shrug and continue to grin as he counted out the losses, pushing his stack all the way down to about 20,000.
Michel Abecassis is the latest man to get his shortening stack into the pot with a dominated hand. It was his in all kinds of trouble as Chino Rheem put him to the test with .
The flop was even more of a disaster for Abecassis, coming to make Rheem's lead larger. When the landed on the turn, Rheem reached out his hand to shake Abecassis', and the Frenchman began to stand from his chair.
We don't think either man initially realized that a river would be good enough to split the pot, and the rest of the table reacted at the sight of the matching full houses. Abecassis was halfway standing already, but he plopped back down to return to his stack, now slightly fatter with the addition of half the blinds and antes. He's got about 120,000.
