Kelly Battles Out the Big Blind

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

A player on the button raised to 100,000 and both blinds called, including Daniel Kelly in the big.

The flop came Q48. Checked to the button, they continued for 80,000. The small blind flat-called while Kelly bumped the bet up to 280,000. The button stepped aside and the small blind called to see a turn.

On the 8, Kelly was checked to, allowing him to barrel for an additional 500,000, promoting a fold from his remaining opponent.
