Hot Start for Keller; Kennedy Eliminated
Level 14
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With three players seeing a board of 7♥8♠5♦ in a single-raised pot, Jonathan Wisbey bet 17,000 from the big blind and received calls from Kane Keller in middle position and Chris Kennedy on the button.
All three players checked the 10♣ turn leading to the 7♠ river. Wisbey checked, Keller bet 40,000, Kennedy folded and Wisbey called.
Keller showed trips with A♦7♦ which was good to take the pot.
Shortly after, Kennedy got his last 100,000 chips in from the hijack and Keller looked him up from the big blind.
Chris Kennedy: 9♥9♣
Kane Keller: 10♣10♥
Kennedy was pipped and found no help on the 2♠6♣2♥8♣A♦ runout, resulting in his elimination while Keller took down another nice pot.
