Kessler Survives With a Chop

[user25067]

Allen Kessler: {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{K-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

Opponent:

{4-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

{2-Hearts}

{A-Clubs}

Kessler completed on third street, his opponent raised and Kessler called. On fourth, Kessler bet and his opponent called. On fifth, sixth, and seventh streets, both players checked it down.

Kessler's pair of fives were good enough for the high, and his opponent took the low half.
