Kempe Busts Liang in Massive Pot
Level 15
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
The hand that was still going several minutes into the break saw Rainer Kempe limp the small blind, and Yu Liang raised to 12,000, Kempe called. Both players checked the 
flop, Kempe then bet the 
turn for 13,500. Liang called and the duo headed to the 
river.
Kempe checked and Liang bet 50,000 with around 150,000 behind. Kempe check-raised to 270,000, enough to cover his opponent. Liang spent more than three minutes in the think tank before calling. Kempe flipped over 
for a set of eights and Liang sent his cards into the muck.
The tournament will continue hand-for-hand when everyone comes back from the break.
