Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
This hand was picked up on the turn of a pot that swelled over 25,000 on a board that read 6♣8♦3♦9♥.
Kellan Kemp checked from early position before Tavish Margers checked from the next seat over. Ricky Barraza went all-in for his final 11,300 from the cutoff. Kemp made the call while Margers folded as Kemp and Barraza went to a showdown with Barraza at risk.
Ricky Barraza: 8♥8♣
Kellan Kemp: 7♣7♠
Barraza had the goods with a set of eights, but Kemp was still drawing live with his open-ended straight draw.
The river was just what Kemp needed, and one of the cards Barraza feared as it came the 10♣ river to give Kemp a straight and sink Barraza's set.
