Kempson Doubles Through Amiri
Level 17
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Corey Kempson opened to 80,000 from the hijack and was called by Ehsan Amiri on the button and the player in the big blind.
The flop came K♠6♥5♥ and it was checked to Amiri, who bet 110,000, the big blind folded, but Kempson check-raised to 350,000, which Amiri called.
Kempson announced he was all in for 795,000 on the 4♠ turn and Amiri tanked a while before sticking in a call to put Kempson at risk.
Corey Kempson: A♥A♠
Ehsan Amiri: 8♣8♥
Kempson was ahead, but needed to fade Amiri's set and straight outs to avoid elimination.
The K♣ river bricked out for Amiri, however, and Kempson was awarded the massive double up.
