Stephen Kenna

Stephen Kenna pushed all in with his last 238,000 from middle position, and Joe Bishop called him from the button. Kenna showed {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

, and Bishop {J-Spades}

{J-Spades}

{J-Hearts}

.

The table had been just been remarking on how frequently A-Q seemed to be coming up in hands. The hand -- which Doyle Brunson has sometimes called his least favorite -- was winning half of the battles and losing half.

Unfortunately for Kenna, this would be one of the times A-Q didn't work out, as the board ran out {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{4-Hearts}

{2-Spades}

{8-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

. Kenna is out, and Bishop is now up to 1.6 million.
