Hand #156-157: Kenney Now With the Commanding Lead

Level 25 : 120,000/240,000, 30,000 ante

Hand #156: Bryn Kenney looked down at the {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds} and raised to 525,000. Joe McKeehen, who held the {k-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}, defended from the big blind and the two watched the flop come down {9-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Both players checked, the {9-Hearts} turn put three nines on the board, and McKeehen check-folded to a bet of 450,000.

Hand #157: McKeehen raised to 480,000 with the {9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} and Kenney called with the {k-Spades}{8-Hearts}. The {3-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop saw Kenney check and then call a bet of 410,000. When the {2-Spades} paired the board on the turn, Kenney checked, McKeehen bet 1 million, and Kenney folded.

Hand #158: Kenney raised to 525,000 with the {a-Spades}{k-Spades} and McKeehen, who held the {a-Diamonds}{3-Spades}, moved all in. Kenney snap-called off for 5.205 million and suddenly there was 10.47 million in the pot.

Kenney was a heavy 72% favorite, which jumped to 87% on the {2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{9-Spades} flop. The {9-Clubs} turn gave McKeehen chop opportunities, but it did not come to pass as the {4-Hearts} blanked on the river.

With that, Kenney took a commanding chip lead.
