Championship: Guillaume Nolet Doubles Through Bryn Kenney

$3,500 WPT Showdown Championship
Level 16: 2,000/4,000 with a 500 ante
Players Remaining: 159 of 1,207

Three players were involved in a raised pot on a Jc4s2s flop. Bryn Kenney and Alejandro Duque checked, and Guillaume Nolet bet 20,000 into a pot of about twice that from the button. Kenney check-raised to 53,000, Duque folded, and Nolet called.

Heads-up now, the turn was the Ts, and Kenney checked again. Nolet moved all in for 160,000, and Kenney called to put him at risk.

Kenney: 4d4h (set of fours)
Nolet: 8s9s (flush)

Kenney needed to fill up or better to earn the knockout, but Nolet’s flush ended up best as the 3h turn completed the board safely to secure his double-up.

Guillaume Nolet – 465,000
Bryn Kenney – 175,000
