Keeline Dodges a Ton of Outs

Level 19 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Mitchell Lekarczyk opened for 16,000 under the gun, and Ben Keeline, who began the day on a big stack but only went downhill, three-bet all in for 64,000 from the button. The blinds both folded, and Lekarczyk hit the tank before making the call.

Lekarczyk: {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}
Keeline: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Keeline had his opponent dominated, but the {8-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{10-Spades} flop delivered Lekarczyk an open-ended straight draw. The {2-Diamonds} turn gave him added flush outs, but Keeline survived with trips when the {Q-Hearts} paired the board on the river.
