Devin Porter Doubles Through Greg 'FBT' Mueller

This hand took place during the last level.

Devin Porter raised to 17,000, John Paul Kelly reraised to 52,000, Devin Porter moved all in for 182,500, and Kelly instantly called with K-K. Porter showed Q-Q, and he'd need to improve to stay alive.

To make matters worse for Porter, Mueller said that he folded Q-2, leaving him with one out to a set. Porter remarks that Mueller just jinxed Kelly by saying that.

Sure enough, there's a queen on the flop (the case queen, if Mueller is to be believed), and Porter goes on to win the hand, doubling up to about 370,000 in chips. Kelly was crippled on the hand.

The hand happened a little while ago, but now you know how Devin 'TranquilChaos' Porter moved up the leaderboard, and what happened to John Paul Kelly
