Kenney Applies the Pressure

Level 15 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Bryn Kenney

Bryn Kenney opened to 120,000 from the cutoff and Brian Rast defended from the big blind. The flop came {9-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades} and Rast led out for 170,000. Kenney called and the {j-Hearts} landed on the turn.

Rast fired a second bullet of 475,000 but Kenney stuck around to see the {4-Clubs} fall on the river. Rast opted to check this time and Kenney announced all in, putting Rast to the test for his remaining 1,155,000 chips. Rast thought for over two minutes and used up all of his time extensions before finally releasing his cards to the muck.
