New Chip Leader Allen Kessler Takes Down Alex Luneau
Level 13
: 400/800, 0 ante
Big-O
As recapped to us by Allen Kessler and fellow players at his table, Kessler raised from the hijiack and Alex Luneau called from the big blind.
The flop came down and a flurry of action resulted in Luneau all in for roughly 70,000. Kessler had him barely covered.
Kessler:
Luneau:
Kessler held the nut straight and second best low, while Luneau held top set with the nut low.
An turn and river completed the board, giving Kessler the high with his eight-high straight and the low with a wheel, eliminating Luneau in what was easily the largest pot of the tournament.
