Kelly Busts A Shorty

Action folded around to the button, who made it 2,500 to go. Online phenom and bracelet winner Dan "djk123" Kelly reraised it to 7,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded, and the button shoved all in for around 14,000. Kelly made the call, and was in a dominating position.

Kelly: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Spades}{9-Spades}

The flop brought two black cards, but they weren't the ones that Kelly was worried about, coming {4-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}. The turn paired both, coming the {a-Clubs}, and the river paired the board, bringing the {3-Diamonds}. Kelly's jack played, and it was good enough to score the knockout, upping his stack to over 150,000.
