Kessler Rivers Smith Out of the Tournament
Level 16
: 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Action folded to Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler on the button and he raised to 13,000. Jerod Smith was in the big blind and three-bet jammed for 54,000 total and Kessler thought for a solid 90 seconds before making the call.
Kessler: 
Smith: 
It was a flip and Smith was just looking to hold to stay alive. He did so through both the 
flop and 
river, but then the 
spiked on the river to pair Kessler.
"Take longer next time Allen," Smith said before heading for the exit.
