Finger Makes Kelly Short

Level 21 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

On a flop of {6-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{2-Hearts} Dan Kelly bet 14,000 into Martin Finger, who called.

The turn was the {9-Spades} and Kelly continued out with a bet of 32,000. Finger called again.

Kelly slowed down and checked on the {5-Clubs} river. Kelly's check prompted Finger to bet 75,000 and Kelly went into the tank. He thought about it for a long time. He shuffled his chips, stared at the board, looked at Finger, then finally mucked his hand.

Kelly was left with under 300,000 chips after the hand.

Stout Extends Lead

Level 23 : 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante

Chanracy Khun led with a raise to 20,000 from the cutoff and Matt Stout three-bet to 51,000 from the small blind. Nick Schulman tank-folded the big blind and Khun flat called.

The two took a monotone flop of {Q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and Stout continued for 63,000. Khun dropped in a call and the {K-Diamonds} struck the felt on the turn. Stout cut out 140,000 on this street and placed it into the middle. Khun called once again.

The board finished with a fourth club- the {2-Clubs}- and Stout checked. Khun checked it back.

"Flush," said Stout, showing {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}.

Khun mucked his cards and Stout dragged in the pot. He now has about 1.36 million while Khun has dropped to 450,000.

Kelly Doubles Through Khun

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Dan Kelly
Dan Kelly

Action folded to Chanracy Khun in the small blind who moved all in with a covering stack on Dan Kelly in the big blind.

Kelly picked his cards up on the table and showed them to the rail one at a time. Upon looking at the first card Kelly nodded his head. After looking at the second card Kelly put them face up on the table and announced a call.

Khun had shoved with {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} but the cards Kelly had shown to the rail were the {A-Spades} and the {A-Hearts}.

The board came down {A-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} and it was good for a double for Kelly.

"So that's how Dan Kelly does it," Matt Stout said after the hand.

"I don't know why you decided to sweat your cards like an old man, but it worked," Matt Berkey said.

Stout Pushes Schulman In

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Matt Stout raised his button to 27,00 and Nick Schulman flat called from the small blind. The two were heads up to the {6-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Spades} flop and Schulman checked. Stout continued for 36,000 and Schulman put out a call. The turn saw the {8-Diamonds} fall and Schulman opted to take the lead for 68,000. Stout called.

The board finished off with the {9-Hearts} and Schulman bet 84,000. Stout moved out a massive stack of chips which was enough to put Schulman all in. Schulman, who had about 280,000 back after his river bet, sat pondering with his tournament life on the line for over two minutes. Eventually, he opted to let it go and Stout took down the pot.

"I had a set there, bud," said Schulman after the hand. Stout said nothing as he stack his new chips.

"That Was Actually Pretty Exciting"

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Nick Schulman raised to 25,000 preflop. Action folded to Chanracy Khun who moved all in. Action folded back around to Schulman who snap called.

Schulman: {A-Clubs}{K-Spades}
Khun: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

"Boring," Matt Stout said from the other side of the table.

The dealer put out the flop of {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}.

"Not anymore," Schulman said.

The turn and the river were the {5-Clubs} and {8-Spades}, both safe cards for Schulman who stay alive as the two players chopped the pot.

"That was actually pretty exciting," Schulman said after the hand.

"Yeah, sorry for jinxing you like that," Stout said.

Stout's Stack Keeps Growing

Level 22 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Matt Stout raised to 27,000 from under the gun and his only caller was Matt Berkey from the cutoff. The flop brought down {7-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and Stout continued out for 34,000. Berkey called and the turn was the {K-Hearts}. Stout fired once more, this time for 58,000. Berkey stayed the course once more and the {A-Hearts} finished off the board. Stout moved 110,000 into the middle and Berkey went into the tank.

"Call," Berkey announced after a moment.

Stout showed {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts} for a rivered pair of aces. Berkey mucked his hand and Stout dragged in the pot.

"I keep getting bailed out when I don't have it," said Stout.

"I called you with threes," replied Berkey, who is now sitting at about 390,000 in chips.
