In and Out for Kessler

Level 7 : 300/500, 500 ante

According to the table, Kostiantyn Vovchenko opened preflop and it was called by Allen Kessler and Bartel Kars in the blinds.

Things heated when the flop brought {8-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. Vovchenko continued after two checks and Kessler raised, called by Kars. Vovchenko reraised and Kessler moved all-in for 20,900. Kars moved all-in as well for a stack around 27,000 and Vovchenko called to create a three-way showdown:

Allen Kessler: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Bartel Kars: {q-Spades}{8-Clubs}
Kostiantyn Vovchenko: {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Kessler was in good shape to triple up with the flush. The {10-Hearts} on the turn didn't change anything but the river fell the {q-Hearts} to give a full house to Kars who took down the big pot while Kessler made his way to re-enter the tournament.
