Brant Jolly Can't Get Settled
Level 3
: 100/200, 200 ante
Brant Jolly busted to Paul Strohm not too long ago and was at his new seat.
He got all in against Chad Kyle with the board reading 
and probably thought he was going to collect some money when he turned over 
for a full house.
Kyle had him just beat though, showing 
for a better full house. Jolly was left with about 300 chips left and would bust shortly after.
