Kellett Continues to Flourish

Forget your knife, you could cut the tension with a toothpick here. I joined the action with Stephen Pearce betting 1,500 on the river of a {7-Diamonds}{2-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Clubs}{4-Clubs} board, Richard Kellett making his man sweat with a deep dwell. After a while, he made the call and Pearce announced with a sigh, "Just ace high". Kellett revealed {K-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} to pick up the pot.

Several hands later, I spotted Kellett bumping and grinding again, yet this time he was the one betting 1,500 on the river. On this occasion, however, and with the boarding reading {9-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{A-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{A-Spades}, the bet was met with a fold and Kellett lapped up yet another pot.

Kellet has now established himself as one of the early pace-setters and is quickly closing in on that 15,000 mark.
