Kessler Gets It In "Dead" But Gets There To Scoop
Level 16
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Action was recapped by Allen Kessler as his stack had grown significantly since the start of the day.
Kessler had seen a flop from the button and both players had gotten in their chips on a flop reading A♣2♠9♦, with Kessler having put himself all in for 38,000.
Allen Kessler: A♠Q♣7♣3♣2♥
Opponent: A♦9♠5♥4♦3♥
Kessler needed to catch a queen, running sevens, or running clubs to survive and he caught that on the Q♦A♥ runout to double up.
"Wow," he exclaimed, "I got it in drawing basically dead."
