Kelly's Aces Hold For a KO
Level 3
: 100/200, 200 ante
A player raised to 500 from early position, and was called by a player in middle position, as well as the hijack. Eric Kelly three-bet to 2,800 in the big blind, and the early position player called, as did the middle position player, while the hijack folded.
Kelly bet 3,800 on the ![]()

flop, and the early position player jammed for 8,100. The middle position player folded, and Kelly thought for a few moments before committing calling chips.
Opponent: ![]()
![]()
Eric Kelly: ![]()
![]()
Kelly was looking to dodge the straight draw of his opponent, and he did just that on the
turn and the
river to earn the elimination.
