Kempe Climbs The Ranks and Takes The Lead
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante
In an unexpected turn of events Rainer Kempe from Germany has taken the chip lead, and while we didn't see where he got most of his chips he did win one big pot off Marvin Rettenmaier just now.
The flop showed 
when we walked up to the table and Kempe check-called a bet of 2,300 from the big blind. Rettenmaier was seated in the cutoff and on the turn the 
popped up. Kempe lead for 5,800 and Rettenmaier tanked for quite a bit before making the call.
The river brought the 
and Kempe lead out for 13,500 into Rettenmaier who took several minutes to make up his mind.
Eventually Rettenmaier called and looked disgusted when Kempe showed 
for a rivered pair of jacks. Rettenmaier plays on with a small stack while Kempe sits on the biggest stack in the room.

Cody Gives One Up
Level 9
: 400/800, 100 ante

Both players checked and Mjeldheim lead out for 6,000 on the 
turn card. Cody smiled and threw his cards towards the muck as he will have to find another spot to pick up some chips.
