Kelly Hears the Music

John-Paul Kelly gets things rolling with a raise from the hijack seat. He makes it 3,500 to go, and Zachary Hyman reraises the pot from the small blind. Kelly makes the call, and the two players get to look at a flop.

It comes {Q-Clubs} {3-Diamonds} {K-Clubs}. Hyman makes a full-pot bet of 27,000. Kelly cuts out the calling chips and takes a moment to survey the situation. He removes his headphones, turns off his iPod, and glances over at Hyman.

"Good luck," Hyman says, which apparently is the confirmation Kelly needs, as he folds his cards into the muck. He still has 70,000 left, but Hyman has him just edged now with 73,000.
