Kessler Turns Over a King to Triple

Level 7 : Limits 2,500/5,000, 0 ante

Allen Kessler: XxXx/K55K/Xx
James Cheung: XxXx/Q27A/Xx
Patrick Stacey: XxXx/J287/Xx

"PokerNews, I'm all-in," Allen Kessler said as he put in his last chip on fourth street. James Cheung and Patrick Stacey both came along.

Chueng then bet on fifth and sixth, and Stacey called to create a side pot. "Now I have a chance," Kessler said as he was showing two pair going to seventh.

Stacey and Cheung both checked, and Kessler showed K83 for a full house. "He already had it," tablemate Jason Kluska said as Kessler took the pot to triple up.

Cheung turned over AQ6 for aces and queens to take the side pot off Stacey.
