Andrew Kelsall Doubles Up

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 2,500 ante

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Jens Lakemeier raised to 19,000 and Andrew Kelsall moved all in for 58,200. Lakemeier called. Both players drew one.

Lakemeier: {5-}{4-}{3-}{2-}
Kelsall: {8-}{5-}{4-}{3-}

"You show first," said Kelsall, "See if I have to sweat it."

Lakemeier turned over the {6-} completing his straight. For posterity's sake, Kelsall turned over an {8-}.

"You should have gone first!" said Lakemeier, laughing, "Then you would have been tilted!"

"I'm probably the only player to have won with a pair of eights all tournament!"
