The heads-up action was picked up on the turn with a board of {9-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} on the felt and around 11,000 in the pot.

The button fired for 8,100. Lincoln Kennedy went into the tank for a minute or so, before announcing a call.

On the {8-Spades} river, both players checked. Kennedy showed {a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}, good for a pair of nines, and his opponent mucked his hand. The former consensus All-American scooped the pot and added to his stack.
