Allen Kessler Picks Up a Nice Pot

The under-the-gun player made a standard opening raise and Allen Kessler called from middle position. The flop came {10-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} and the raiser moved all in for 1,700. Kessler made the call and the players showed:

Kessler: {10-Clubs} {7-Clubs}
Opponent: {Q-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}

The turn and river blanked and Kessler now sits on a stack of 7,000.
