Brinkenhoff Doubles Katz, Eliminates McKeehen

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Michael Brinkenhoff has been active at the table in front of the media desks. After just sending a good portion of his chips across the table to Cary Katz who had quad kings, Brinkenhoff wasted little time getting back in the saddle.

On the very next hand, Brinkenhoff got tangled up in a pot with Joe McKeehen on his left and Brinkenhoff got the better of the former WSOP Main Event champion, sending McKeehen to the rail.
