Keem Takes Lead With Elimination of Koenigsberg
A massive pot has just seen Sung Keem take over the chip lead while eliminating Andrew Koenigsberg.
Carson Wieland started the action with a raise to 14,000 under the gun. Koenigsberg called before Keem three-bet to 50,000 on the button.
Both opponents called to see the K♥6♠5♣ flop, and action checked to Keem who bet 35,000. Again both opponents called.
The trio saw the 6♣ turn and things got spicy.
Wieland now led for 175,000, Koenigsberg moved all in for 116,000, and Keem then moved in over top for 435,000.
Wieland deliberated for a bit before folding, leaving Keem to cooler Koenigsberg.
Andrew Koenigsberg: 7♥7♣6♦5♦
Sung Keem: A♠A♥K♠K♦
Keem's kings full had Koenigsberg's sixes full crushed, with the 4♥ on the river ending his day.
Meanwhile, Michael Kuney was also eliminated at an adjacent table.
