Kessler Scoops Multiway Pot

Level 5
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Stud 8/B

Allen Kessler: {a-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}/{6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{3-Hearts}
Eric Kurtzman: {x-}{x-}/{4-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{q-Spades}/{x-}
Opponent: {x-}{x-}/{a-Spades}{5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{j-Spades} - folded sixth street
Opponent: {x-}{x-}/{8-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{3-Spades} - folded fifth street

Four players picked up the action on fourth street. Eric Kurtzman bet the street and all three players called, including Allen Kessler showing the pretty {6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}.

On fifth, all players checked to Kessler. "They all checked, right?" asked Kessler. The dealer confirmed, which prompted Kessler to bet. He shed one opponent, but the other two hung around.

On sixth, Kessler found another low, connecting card and bet once more. Kurtzman again called, the third player folded to head to seventh heads up.

Once dealt, Kurtzman checked to Kessler who fired the final barrel. Kurtzman called.

"Ace, three, four, five, six, seven, eight," said Kessler. "That's a very good hand."

Indeed it was, and it was good enough to scoop it all.
