Kennedy Survives As Bubble Approaches

Rodrick Kennedy open-pushed all in for his last 69,000, and got a single caller in Andrew Lee from the big blind. Kennedy rolled over {A-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}, while Lee had {7-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}.

The board ran out {Q-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{3-Spades}{5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, that river four completing a wheel for Kennedy. With the bubble looming ever closer, Kennedy survived with the double-up.
