Kessler Catches Up

Level 28 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Allen Kessler
Allen Kessler

Jared Hamby told us about a hand that recently transpired at his table in the following manner:

Action folded around to Allen Kessler and he shoved from the button for about 345,000. Martin Finger called from the big blind to put Kessler at risk and the two players tabled their hands.

Allen Kessler: {K-Spades}{7-Spades}
Martin Finger: {A-}{4-}

Finger had the lead and Kessler needed help from the deck to survive. The board ran out {J-}{10-}{8-}{7-}{J-} to pair Kessler's seven and he took the pot to double up.
