Young Busts Kempson in First Hand

Level 1 : 100/200, 200 ante

Action on table 28 kicked off three-handed with Vincent Huang, Rory Young and Corey Kempson in action. Kempson had squeezed to 1,800 and Young called to see a flop of {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts} on which Young check-raised from 2,800 to 7,800.

Kempson gave it some thought and moved all in, Young snap-called.

Rory Young: {2-Spades}{2-Diamonds}
Corey Kempson: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

The {6-Hearts} turn and {4-Hearts} river changed nothing whatsoever and Kempson busted in the very first hand he played.
