Brandon Kessous

Brandon Kessous raised to 325,000 preflop under the gun, and Loni Hui called on the hijack. Tyler Montoya also called on the button.

The first three cards were dealt 10c4d3h, and Kessous bet 350,000, Hui called, and Montoya folded.

The turn fell Ad, Hui bet 1.1 million, and Kessous called. The river then delivered the Kc, Hui bet 1.8 million, and Kessous thought for a moment before calling.

Hui showed down 8d8c, but Kessous revealed Ah4h to win the hand (if you go back and watch the live stream you can see after the fact that Montoya had folded pocket eights earlier in the hand as well). Kessous was over 10.6 million, and Hui was down to just under 1.4 million after the hand.

Brandon Kessous – 10,675,000 (85 bb)
Loni Hui – 1,375,000 (11 bb)
