Keogh Busts Phelan
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Picking up the action on the river, Glenn Keogh put out a bet of 50,000 into a pot of 67,000 with the board reading 10?9?6?J?J?, which put his opponent, Niall Phelan, to the test for his remaining stack.
Phelan went deep into the tank and spent several minutes agonizing over his decision, picking up his chips sporadically and peering at the board and his opponent. Phelan eventually made the call.
Keogh turned over A?9? for a pair of nines, the ace kicker proving crucial against Phelan's 9?6?. Phelan's flopped two pair had unfortunately been counterfeited by the runout.
Keogh raked in a significant pot and Phelan headed for the exit muttering to himself.
