Kein Tops Peters

[user339872]

Nível 10 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

While Gustavo Kein and David Peters both entered the tournament via the Platinum Pass, you could say one player has a more distinguished poker resume. Kein from Argentina has a mere $22,700 in career earnings while Peters sits inside the top 5 all-time earners with over $29.5 million to his name.

However, once you sit down at the poker table, you can toss all those numbers away and put everyone on an even playing field. The two players were seated at the same table and got involved in a hand that saw Peters put himself at risk. The American shoved all in for 20,400 in the hijack and Kein pushed all in over the top from the small blind.

Gustavo Kein:
David Peters:

The board ran out and Kein got the best of Peters this time around, sending him to the rail prior to the first break of the day.
