Kelton Doubles Through Young

The action folded around to Jordan Young who raised to 65,000 from middle position; all the others got out of the way before Casey Kelton reraised all-in for 340,000 from the small blind. Andrea Vezzani took his time considering his option from the big blind, but no sooner that Vezzani's hand had touched the muck Young snap-called.

Kelton: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Young: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}

The flop was a very sweaty {9-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{10-Clubs}, but the turn of the {6-Clubs} kept Kelton ahead, and it stayed that way after the repeat {10-Hearts} appeared on the river, giving Kelton two pair and the much-needed double-up.

Was Kelton Caught Out?

After a raised pot preflop, Foster Hays and Casey Kelton went heads-up to the flop of {4-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Diamonds}. Kelton opened from middle position for 85,000, but Hays raised to 250,000.

Kelton came back with a reraise, making it 550,000, but Hays moved all-in. Kelton sighed, put his hands behind his head and grimaced, then after about two minutes, he threw his hand into the muck with a loud sigh.

Le Recuperates

Jordan Young came in with a raise to 65,000 from UTG +1 and the action then folded around to Allan Le who called from the button, as did Foster Hays from the small blind, to make it three-handed to the flop of {J-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Hays checked to Young who led out for 110,000. Le was the only caller, but then Young check-folded to Le after he opened for 150,000 on the turn of the {6s).
