McKenzie Back From the Brink

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

Six players including Jesse McKenzie called preflop and watched as the board came {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{5-Clubs}.

Both blinds checked to the player under the gun who bet 1,000. The player in middle position called forcing the player in the hijack out. McKenzie then moved all in for his last 2,400 from the button as the decision fell on the original better. She bumped it up to 5,000 sending her opponent into the tank.

"She took my stack with quads and now she's trying to finish me off," joked McKenzie, as he waited on the final player to act. He eventually folded and both live players then tabled their cards.

Jesse McKenzie: {4-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{a-Spades}

The {10-Hearts} on the turn provided no help for McKenzie but the {j-Clubs} on the river did, improving his hand to a flush and awarding him the pot.

"I'm back from 525," rejoiced McKenzie, scooping in another double up to move to over 7,000 in chips.
