Eric Kesselman Makes Huge Call

Eric Kesselman put in a preflop raise and got a caller on the button. The two took a flop of {5-?} {4-?} {2-?}. Kesselman followed up with a bet of 3,000 and the button pushed for just over 20,000. Kesselman made the call and showed {A-?} {J-?}, well in front of his opponent's {8-?} {6-?}. The turn came a {4-?} and the river was an {A-?}. Kesselman triumphed and is now a force with 70,000.
