Allen Kessler completed after Dario Alioto's bring-in, with Alioto the only caller to fourth street. Kessler bet and was called to fifth, firing again and Alioto came along.
Sixth street saw Kessler check his open pair of fours, making the call after Alioto bet. Kessler checked again on seventh, and Alioto tossed out a bet.
"I raise just in case," said Kessler as Alioto called. Kessler tabled a full house to claim the high pot, while Alioto turned over his eight-five low to take the low.
