: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante

Level 27
: 30,000/60,000, 10,000 ante
Luke Spano wasn’t able to rebuild a stack as he was recently eliminated in 4th place.
Spano’s last hand saw him three-bet all in for around 400,000 from the button after Corey Kempson had opened the cut off. A flurry of cards went into the muck from all around the table before it was back on Kempson. He instantly called and Spano was at risk.

Kempson The New Leader
Level 26
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
Corey Kempson is the new chip leader!
He took over the lead recently after taking a pot off Edison Nguyen on a 
board. Nguyen fired two bullets, but gave up on the river, and ultimately showed a junk hand, while Kempson had hit a pair of queens.
The next closest player to Kempson's stack is Dennis Huntly, who has just been sitting stoically behind his stack while the rest of the table rumble.
