Keller: Senior But No Slouch

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Harold Keller is coming off his biggest score in June, though he's looking to set a new record by crushing this event. The man from Indiana has a very respectable stack, especially after the last hand.

With 120,000 in the pot heading to the river with the board reading {2-Clubs}{a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{4-Hearts} Keller checked it over to his opponent, unfortunately for Keller his opponent checked it back. Keller tabled {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts} for a rivered flush and his opponent showed {a-Clubs}{3-Clubs} for top pair, shipping the pot Keller's way.
