Sorscher Comes From Behind

Jonathan Sorscher
Jonathan Sorscher

Action folded to Jonathan Sorscher on the button and he moved all in for 58,000. Allen Kessler made a quick called from the small blind, and after the big got out of the way, the cards were turned up.

Showdown
Sorscher: {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}
Kessler: {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}

Sorscher was in about a bad a spot as he could be, but that changed on the {3-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{7-Spades} flop when he paired his king and picked up a flush draw to boot. Just like that Kessler was drawing to two outs, which would come as the {9-Hearts} appeared on the turn followed by the {K-Hearts} on the river.

With that, Sorscher doubles and the bubble continues.
