Picking up the action after a flop of ![]()
![]()
, Bryn Kenney checked from the small blind and Justin Bonomo bet 85,000 from the big blind. Christoph Vogelsang called in the hijack, as did Kenney, landing the
turn.
Kenney checked to Bonomo who bet 150,000. Vogelsang folded, Kenney check-raised all in for about 500,000 effective and Bonomo called all in with ![]()
for a queen-high flush. However, Kenney had him drawing dead with ![]()
for king-high flush.
The meaningless
river locked up the pot and the dinner-break chip lead for Kenney.
