Kessler Gets "Coolered" Early On

Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Daniel DiPasquale raised from early position preflop and Allen Kesller called from the small blind. The pair then saw a 2?4?K? flop, where Kessler checked and DiPasquale bet out 6,000. Kessler made the call and the 8? turn showed its face.
Kessler promptly led out for 15,000 and DiPasquale thought for a little while before putting in the call. The 3? river fell and Kessler bet again, this time for 20,000.
This time, DiPasquale responded with a raise to 85,000. "Really? Coolered on the first hand?" Kessler asked. He mulled it over for a bit longer before eventually folding, granting the pot to his opponent.
