Kessler Gets Teased with an Ace

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

The action folded to Allen Kessler on the button who shipped all in for 6,100 after looking at just one card. The big blind made the call to put Kessler at risk without looking at any of his cards.

Allen Kessler: {a-Hearts}{2-Clubs}
Opponent: {9-Clubs}{7-Clubs}

The flop came {k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds} and Kessler was drawing to three outs after his opponent flopped a pair. The turn was the {a-Diamonds} to give Kessler the lead with a pair of aces but the {7-Spades} on the river turned things in a hurry as his opponent made trip sevens.

Morton Makes Quads to Double Up

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Robert Morton was down to less than 10 big blinds and he moved all in for 9,100 in early position. The action folded to the small blind who flicked in a call as the two players tabled their hands.

Robert Morton: {7-Spades}{7-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

"I haven't flopped a set all day," Morton announced as the dealer spread the {k-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} flop. "Well now is a good time!"

The turn was the {7-Clubs} to give Morton quads and his opponent was drawing dead to the {q-Diamonds} on the river.
