Hand #137: Bryn Kenney raised from the button to 425,000 with {K-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Joe McKeehen called with {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}. The flop brought out {8-Hearts}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs} and McKeehen checked to Kenney who bet out, which was enough to get Kenney to fold.

Hand #138: Joe McKeehen raised from the button with {8-Spades}{6-Diamonds} to 400,000 and Bryn Kenney called from the big blind with {K-Hearts}{J-Spades}. The flop brought out {5-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and McKeehen flopped a straight. Kenney bet 610,000 from the big blind and McKeehen made the call.

On the turn the {5-Clubs} hit and Kenney bet another 1,190,000, while having zero percent chance to make the best hand. McKeehen made the call again, putting the {7-Spades} on the river. Both players checked, after McKeehen said, "I'm really scared," about the board being paired twice. McKeehen's straight won the pot and he extended his lead.

Level 24 : 100,000/200,000, 30,000 ante

Hand #131: Bryn Kenney limped with the {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}, Joe McKeehen checked his option with the {a-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, and the flop came down {8-Clubs}{k-Spades}{j-Diamonds}, which they both checked. The {K-Diamonds} turn saw McKeehen check-call a bet of 265,000 from Kenney, and the {2-Clubs} completed the board on the river. McKeehen checked, Kenney did the same, and the reigning World Series of Poker Main Event champ took down the pot.

Hand #132: McKeehen raised to 400,000 with the {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}, Kenney three-bet to 1.07 million with the {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}, and McKeehen four-bet to 1.825 million. Kenney responded by five-betting all in and McKeehen snap-folded.

Hand #133: Kenney folded the {3-Hearts}{2-Hearts} from the button and McKeehen, who held the {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}, got a walk in the big blind.

Hand #134: McKeehen folded the button and Kenney got a walk.

Hand #135: Kenney raised to 425,000 with the {10-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} and McKeehen moved all in with the {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. Kenney folded.

Hand #136: McKeehen raised to 400,000 with the {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and then called off for 3.725 million when Kenney moved all in with the {q-Spades}{10-Spades}. McKeehen was ahead, and an aces in the window on the {k-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{a-Hearts} flop made him an 81% favorite.

Kenney flopped a gutshot, but it didn't come in as the {4-Spades} blanked on the turn followed by the {4-Clubs} river. Ship the double to McKeehen.
