Kenney Takes Two
An absolutely huge hand has gone down over on the feature table that cost both Paul Phua and Wai Kin Yong their tournament lives and saw Bryn Kenney shoot up near the top of the chip counts.
It was Kenney who was the instigator of all the carnage, opening the action to from the hi-jack 22,000, Phua flat called from the small blind and Wai Kin Yong moved all-in from the big blind for 266,000.
The action was back on Kenney, who re-shoved for 637,000 and as one of the shorter stacks with 166,000, Phua decided he was getting a good price to take a gamble and made the call also.

The board ran out to give Kenney the monster pot and shoot him up to 1,076,000, while both Phua and Yong headed to the registration area to buy back in.
