Chainsaw Has Chips

Shamus

Omaha/8

Allen "Chainsaw" Kessler ended last night in better shape that we had originally thought with a stack of 25,000. He just opened with a raise from the button in an Omaha/8 hand, and after the blinds folded he showed his {A-Clubs}

-x-x.

Those blinds and antes take him to 26,000.
