Keys to Success

Just had a big hand involving Fabrice Soulier and James Keys to start the day, one resulting in a big chip swing.

Soulier had opened for a raise in middle position, then Keys reraised from the button, forcing out the blinds. Soulier then made it 6,750 to go, Keys pushed it up to 12,600, Soulier reraised again to 26,750, Keys shoved for 47,075, and Soulier called.

Keys turned over {A-Clubs}{A-Diamonds} while Soulier had {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}, and when the board ran out {2-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{9-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}, Keys and Soulier had essentially switched their Day 2c starting stacks.
