Score one for Kris 2 years ago

Kris Kuykendall just took down a nice pot with an all-in move on the river. It began with David Pham opening to $180,000 from early position and got calls from Hafiz Khan and Kris Kuykendall in the blinds. The flop came down Qh Jh Td and it was checked around.

After the 2c hit the turn and Khan checked, Kuykendall fired out $225,000. Pham got out of the way and Khan made the call. The river was the 7c and after Khan checked again Kuykendall announced all-in. After a bit of thought Hafiz released the hand and Kris raked the pot.

Fohrenbach Fohrenbopped! (8th) 2 years ago

On his first hand after doubling through Joe Elpayaa, Ricky Fohrenbach re-raises to $500,000 after Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier opens with a raise from early position. Action folds back to ElkY, who moves all-in and puts Fohrenbach to a decision for his tournament life. After a few moments of rumination, the young American makes the call and stakes his $2 million dreams with pocket jacks against ElkY's As Ks. The board comes Kd Td 4s 9h 6s and ElkY wins the coin flip, busting Fohrenbach in 8th place for a $150,000 haul and building Grospellier's stack to $6.1 million.
