Kelley Finds a Backdoor Double

Level 13 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Men Nguyen nearly scored an unlikely KO.
Men Nguyen nearly scored an unlikely KO.

Dave Lee limped in early position, and Men Nguyen raised to about 6,000. Action folded to Chuck Kelley, who shipped all in for 37,200 in the big blind. Lee folded, and Nguyen snap-called.

Nguyen: {q-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Kelley: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}

"Ohhh, nice hand," Nguyen said.

But it was Nguyen with the better hand after the {3-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} flop, a one-outer according to Lee, who said he folded {a-}{q-}. The {2-Diamonds} gave Kelley some hope with a flush draw, and the dealer peeled off the {5-Diamonds} to save his tournament life.
