The secret to his success was simple: he didn’t lose a single all-in.

He nearly busted in 9th place when Ruan Feixiang shoved 13 BB with AJo and Elton Tsang reshoved 41 BB with AQo. Holding a 12 BB stack, Kenney took a moment before folding pocket jacks. It turned out to be the correct decision, as the flop came with two queens.

At 8-handed, Kenney doubled through David Miscikowski: QQ > 88. His stack increased to 17 BB.

At 7-handed, he doubled again: J9o > AKo against Xing. He flopped a straight and won a 21 BB pot.

At 6-handed, he doubled once more: AKo > JJ against Tom Dwan. A king on the flop secured him a 34 BB pot.

At 4-handed, Kenney eliminated Wang Xuanyi: KJs > A2o for a 25 BB pot. Board: 3JAK7.

At 3-handed, he sent Elton Tsang to the rail: AKo > AQo for a 48 BB pot, winning with king-high.

Kenney reached heads-up against Jesse Lonis. Lonis had one of the smoothest final tables imaginable: he started as the chip leader with 80 BB and held the lead almost the entire way.

Kenney had 73 BB, while Lonis had 69 BB. The two agreed to an even chop of $1.6 million each, leaving $54,000 and the trophy to play for.

They battled for another 20 minutes. In the final hand, Lonis got all the chips in with K2o, while Kenney called with JTs. The pot was worth 56 BB, and a ten on the flop sealed the victory.
