Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
John Adderley raised from under the gun and Nicholas Kennedy moved all in from the big blind for 198,000. Adderley called with the bigger stack and players flipped their cards.
Nicholas Kennedy: 9♥9♦
John Adderley: A♥A♦
The board ran out 5♣5♠9♣K♠6♦. Kennedy had already stood up and started to put his coat on, turning around to see that he'd flopped a full house.
"See, nines are my favourite hand," he said.
Moments after tripling up his stack, Kennedy doubled up again to bring his stack up to around 410,000.
