Kempe Out Front Again

Level 25 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

There was close to 700,000 in the pot on a {6-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{4-Hearts} board to the turn when Fedor Holz led for 325,000.

Rainer Kempe responded by making it 1,105,000 on the button and Holz called.

Holz checked the board pairing {k-Hearts} river, then folded when Kempe bet 1,225,000, allowing Kempe to retake the lead.

Holz Edges Ahead

Level 25 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Fedor Holz made it 300,000 and Rainer Kempe called. The {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop saw Kempe check-fold to a 400,000-chip continuation bet from Holz.

Then, after two walks back and forth, Kempe made it 300,000 to go and Holz three-bet the big blind, making it 1.175 million. Kempe folded, allowing Hiolz to take a 220,000 chip lead.

Kempe Back in Front

Level 25 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante
Rainer Kempe
Rainer Kempe

Rainer Kempe raised to 300,000 and Fedor Holz three-bet to 1.075 million. Kempe jammed for 4.1 million and Holz stood up with chips in hand as he got the count. As soon as it was confirmed, he dropped in chips to call.

Kempe: {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}
Holz: {k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

Holz's three-outer failed to materialize as the board ran out {9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. The double put Kempe back in the lead, albeit narrowly.

Holz Extends

Level 25 : 60,000/120,000, 15,000 ante

Fedor Holz opened to 300,000 and Rainer Kempe thought for 40 seconds before raising it up to 1.015 million.

Holz wasted little time pushing all in, putting Kempe to the test for all his remaining chips. He folded, allowing Holz to extend his lead without showdown.

Holz Doubles Up, Draws Close

Level 24 : 50,000/100,000, 10,000 ante
Fedor Holz
Fedor Holz

Fedor Holz made it 275,000 and Rainer Kempe called. Kempe checked the {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop and Holz continued for 350,000.

Kempe check-raised to 1,100,000 and Holz jammed in for 3.1 million. Kempe called it off with the {10-Clubs}{8-Hearts}, but would need some help to finish of Holz and his {k-Clubs}{k-Hearts}.

None came on the {9-Hearts} turn or {j-Clubs} river, and Holz drew as close to even as he's been with the double up.

The turn was the {J-Clubs} to pair the board's top card. Both players checked, and the river was the {10-Diamonds}. Kempe fired 740,000, and Holz gave it up, finishing the hand with just over 3.5 million.
