Kirby Wins Battle of the Blind All In's

Level 11 : 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Matt Kirby
Matt Kirby

Action on the table quickly folded around to MSPT Hall of Famer Pat Steele on the button, who looked to his left at fellow MSPT Hall of Famer Rob Wazwaz in the small blind and three-time MSPT champ Matt Kirby in the big blind and said, "I feel like us three should just go all in blind here."

Steele stood by his statement and jammed for roughly 55,000 without looking.

Wazwaz looked down at his cards then quickly mucked his hand while Kirby played along and tossed in his 22,000 stack into the middle without looking.

Matt Kirby: {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs}
Pat Steele: {q-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

Kirby actually woke-up with a solid hand and connected with the {k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Diamonds} flop.

The {2-Clubs} turn left Steele drawing dead and the {a-Diamonds} river secured Kirby his double-up.
