Kenney Wins a Small One

Tim Baker

Level 13 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Chris Brewer raised to 160,000 from the cutoff with Bryn Kenney calling on the button and OIpen Kisacikoglu defending his big blind.

The flop of A♥3♣10♣ checked to Kenney, and he bet 260,000. This was enough to get Kisacikoglu and Brewer to fold, meaning Kenney pulled in the pot.

Level 13 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Nick Petrangelo raised to 180,000 in the hijack and David Peters shoved all in for 1,365,000 from the small blind. Alex Foxen also moved all in for 1,215,000 in the big blind and Petrangelo quickly folded.

Alex Foxen: A♣J♠ All in
David Peters: K♣K♦

The flop came J♣10♠7♣ to give Foxen top pair but Peters was still out front with his pair of kings. The 4♣ on the turn made things sweaty and it was the J♦ on the river that improved Foxen to trip jacks, leaving Peters with just a couple of big blinds.

David Peters: A♦5♦ All in
Thomas Boivin: 10♦10♣

On the 10♦8♦6♦ flop, Badziakouski opted to lead for 175,000 and Vieira called.

Badziakouski slowed down with a check on the 3♠ turn and Vieira fired for 450,000, which Badziakouski called before the Q♠ river checked through.

Mikita Badziakouski: 9♠9♦
Joao Vieira: K♣10♣

Level 13 : Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante

Jason Koon was down to just 395,000 and shoved all in from early position. The action folded around to Martin Kabrhel in the big blind who was hesitant to call at first.

"I don't want to bust you but it's like a win-win. If I double you, I'm happy. If I bust you, I'm still happy," Kabrhel rambled before making the call.

Jason Koon: 3♠3♥ All in
Martin Kabrhel: 10♣9♠

"Good luck, Jason," Kabhrle continued. "In the next tournament, not this one."

The flop came K♣8♣4♥ and things got real interesting on the 3♣ turn. Koon picked up a set but Kabrhle had the lone flush draw. The river was the A♣, which got murmurs from the rail, and Koon departed from the feature table.
