Smith Finishes Kessler Off

Level 10 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Allen Kessler shoved for his last 2,100 from under-the-gun and was called by Jerod Smith in the hijack and the player in the big blind.

The flop came {a-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} and it was checked to Smith, who bet 2,500. His opponent quickly folded and hands were revealed.

Smith: {a-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}
Kessler: {7-Clubs}{9-Spades}

Kessler was drawing to runner-runner, and the {a-Hearts} turn left him drawing dead. A meaningless river fell and Smith took down the pot.
