Rasmussen Triples Up
Level 27
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Steve Kelly limped in under the gun and Kim Rasmussen moved all in for his last 400,000 on the button. "Call this if you don't like money," he told Joann Counts, who also committed her last 625,000 in the big blind. Kelly also called.
Kim Rasmussen: K♣Q♠ 
Joann Counts: K♥J♠
Steve Kelly: J♦8♦
Kelly picked up a flush draw on the 9♦6♠9♠5♦ with a chance to bust both players and set the final table, but he missed the 10♠ river and Rasmussen took the pot with his queen-kicker to triple up.
