Kessler Active on the Bubble

Allen Kessler bumped the action to 8,500 from the cutoff and was called by Tay Nguyen on the button. After a flop of {Q-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {Q-Hearts}, both players checked around. The turn came the {8-Spades} and after a check, Nguyen took the opportunity to bet 10,000, which Kessler insta-called. The river produced the {J-Clubs} and was checked down. Kessler quickly flipped up his {K-Spades} {K-Diamonds} and saw Nguyen muck.

Counts after the hand:
Kessler - 168,000
Nguyen - 111,000
