Andersson Cracks Kempe's Aces to Take the Chip Lead

Level 9 : 1,400/2,800, 350 ante

A big hand happened just before the blinds increased.

Rainer Kempe opened to 5,040 from early position before Francisco "VaPaCooler" Benitez three-bet to 14,455 from middle position. Joakim Andersson jammed for 223,596 from the big blind and got a call by Kempe for 83,912. Benitez folded and Andersson and Kempe showed the hands.

Joakim Andersson: {q-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Rainer Kempe: {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}

Kempe was looking good for a double but the {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{9-Hearts} board gave Andersson a straight to not only at least temporarily eliminate Kempe but also to take the chip lead.
