Sean Winter

Sean Winter moved all in for 121,000 in the cutoff, and Bryn Kenney called to put him at risk in the small blind. Kenney briefly showed pocket sevens, but there was a hand in progress at the other table, so he turned them back over.

Winter took the opportunity to let Kenney know what he was up against. “Queens,” Winter disclosed.

“So we’re flipping?” Kenney asked.

When the other hand was complete, the hands were shown down.

Winter: QcQd
Kenney: 7s7h

Kenney had only been joking, but the Kh9h8h flop provided quite the sweat. The 9s turn and Ks river completed the board safely for Winter, though, and he doubled up with kings and queens.

Sean Winter – 266,000 (17 bb)
Bryn Kenney – 390,000 (24 bb)
