Allen Kessler Asks: "What's Wrong With Me?

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Bruce Russell opened for 3,200 under the gun and Gary Reisman called from the button. Nick Pupillo came along from the big blind, and the trio watched the flop come down {5-Hearts}{j-Spades}{2-Clubs}. Two checks saw Reisman bet 7,000, Pupillo folded, and Russell called to see the {10-Hearts} turn.

Russell checked, Reisman bet 15,000, and Russell check-raised to 36,000. Reisman called and then both players checked the {8-Clubs} river.

"I missed," Russell admitted and showed the {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} for a missed straight. Reisman then tabled the {j-Hearts}{k-Spades} for the win.

"Wow, I triple up," chimed Allen Kessler, who claimed to have folded pocket deuces. "What's wrong with me?"
