"Cowboy" Kenna James Ditches His Horse for the Wheel

We caught up with action on the turn, as "Cowboy" Kenna James contemplated an all-in move made by an unknown opponent. The board read {7-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and James brow was furrowed in concentration, but he cracked a smile as he splashed calling chips into the pot.

After his opponent proclaimed "set" and turned over {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, James revealed his {3-Spades}{2-Spades} for bottom pair and an open-ended straight draw. When the {A-Spades} completed the board on the river, James could only laugh at his good fortune, while his opponent lamented his fate by asking quietly "What can you do?"

James now sits with a healthy stack of over 10,000 chips, and the wheels have been set in motion for run here in Day 1b of the $1,500 "Millionaire Maker" event.
