Bubble Bully?

Kessler won't be bullied
Kessler won't be bullied
As he had done several times in the last few hands, Chris Dombrowski raised to 6,600. Allen Kessler from the cutoff reraised quickly to 20,000. After a short tank, Dombrowski announced, "All in" and was insta-called by Kessler holding {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}. Dombrowski tabled {8-Clubs} {8-Hearts} and waited for the flop. The flop brought plenty of drama as it rained down {A-Spades} {8-Spades} {9-Spades}! The {2-Spades} on the turn completed the flush and gave the lead back to Kessler. The river was another spade in the form of the {7-Spades}, but Kessler's flush proved best as he amassed stacks of yellow chips and improved his count to 170,000. Dombrowski shipped most of his chips one seat over and was left with 47,000.
