Kenny Brannon

Kenny Brannon who took the Event 8 chip leader very early on is back on top. His was up against a player holding all in preflop. They saw a flop of and the player flopped two pair but Brannon picked up a flush draw. He improved to his flush when the hit the turn and the river was no help to the all in player.
