Kenney and Fast Jam to Build Stack

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Dietrich Fast raised to 5,500 on the button and Igor Yaroshevskyy three-bet to 20,000 out of the small blind. Bryn Kenney in the big blind gave both a stare down and four-bet all in with some five seconds left on his shot clock. Fast quickly got out of the way and Yaroshevskyy also folded as well.

Soon after it was Mikalai Vaskaboinikau that raised to 4,000 and he was called by Yaroshevskyy on the button. Both players checked the {Q-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} flop, Vaskaboinikau bet the {10-Diamonds} turn for 5,000 and Yaroshevskyy called. After the {10-Hearts} river, both players checked and Vaskaboinikau showed {K-Spades}{10-Spades} for trips tens as winning hand.

After Dominik Nitsche scooped a small three-way pot on that very table, it was Fast that raised to 4,000. Kenney called on the button and Nick Petrangelo made it 12,000 to go out of the small blind. Fast inquired about the stack size of Petrangelo, who replied "I started with 70 in total," and that prompted the shove of Fast. Kenney folded and Petrangelo immediately smiled, but also let go with a few seconds left on the clock.
