Kehoe Gets Paid Massively
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Stephen Kehoe and Kyle Rafferty were heads up on a flop of 9?7?6?. Kehoe checked from the small blind and Rafferty added 38,000 chips to the 42,000 pot from under the gun. Kehoe then raised to 100,000, and Rafferty called after a long tank.
The 10? turn then was put on the felt and Rafferty check-called a smaller 42,000 bet from Kehoe. On the subsequent J? river, Rafferty checked again and this time Kehoe put forth 123,000 chips, most of his stack.
Rafferty assembled the required chips and put them in for a call. Kehoe showed 10?8? for a flopped straight, and Rafferty's cards hit the muck, accompanied by an expletive from his mouth.
Kehoe soared up the leaderboard by winning this pot, while Rafferty was left with just six big blinds.
