Richard Kellett, who'd whittled Surinder Sunar down to under half his starting stack, looked in the latter part of the 150/300 level to have moved up gears until the engine was smoking and it was making that weird whining sound like when my Nissan Micra tries to break the speed limit up hill. Every time I looked over he was raising it preflop, and latterly raising enough to commit his opponent's whole stack. A bid to end it now, after concentrating with such unexpectedly quiet determination for so long?
The bid failed- Surinder took his first double up shot with Ad-Kd vs. Kellett's Tc 7c, and then did it again pretty soon thereafter. Ad-7d for Kellett and Q-2 for Sunar - but the board had a Queen on it and I am going to assume that the point at which that came was the point at which the money went in. Please leave me a comment if you are Sunar or Kellett and this is mistaken.
So... the tables pretty much turned on the aggressive but impassive youngster, for the first time in the game he found himself on the wrong side of the tracks in Stack Town. He got a double through in his turn, and now has around 8k to Sunar's 12k.
Is Kellett being staked in this tournament? :)
