Kelso Kounterfeits Ficak

Bob Ficak lost a flip and was left with just 19,000. He risked his last chips on the next hand with {j-Spades}{9-Spades} and ran into the {k-Hearts}{k-Spades} of Blake Kelso. The {j-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop was just what Ficak needed. The {10-Diamonds} on the turn was fine too, but the {10-Hearts} on the river counterfeited Ficak's two pair. He didn't notice though, and yelled in excitement, thinking he'd doubled up. When someone pointed out that Kelso actually won the hand with kings up, a crestfallen Ficak composed himself and made his exit. With a timely higher two pair, Kelso moved up to 315,000.
