Andrew 'A.J' Kelsall, former golf pro and owner of a WSOP ring, has a good start in this event with a stack worth 13,500.

The player under the gun bet and Kelsall raised it to 600. The action folded back to the initial raiser who called. The flop fell {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{a-Clubs} and Kelsall's opponent check-called his bet for 200.

On the turn {6-Hearts}, the under-the-gun player bet 400 and Kelsall called. The river brought the {9-Hearts} and Kelsall made a last bet for 400 after his opponent checked and the latter called. Kelsall showed {a-Spades}{9-Diamonds} and it was enough to make his opponent muck his hand.

Kelsall, who finished third in the $2,500 Big Bet Mix and the $1,500 H.O.R.S.E. last year, will try to catch his first WSOP bracelet here.
