Kessler Binks the Turn

Level 23 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

The big blind checked to Carter Kessler on a {5-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{k-Spades} flop and Kessler bet 80,000. The big blind check-raised to 190,000 and Kessler thought for about two minutes before moving in for 645,000 total.

"This is a cooler if I lose this one," the big blind said to someone on the rail before calling.

Big blind: {5-Spades}{4-Diamonds}
Kessler: {k-Clubs}{q-Spades}

Kessler was behind, but the dealer burned and turned the {k-Hearts}, giving Kessler unbeatable trips.

An elated Kessler clapped, hopping up and down a few times, unable to contain his excitement.
