Kempe Turns the Best Hand

Level 8 : 2,000/4,000, 3,000 ante

Rainer Kempe opened to 8,000 on the button and was called by Cary Katz in the small blind along with Ben Tollerene in the big blind. The flop came {5-Spades}{2-Spades}{2-Hearts} and the action was checked to Kempe who continued for 12,000. Katz folded and Tollerene stuck around to see the {10-Spades} on the turn.

Tollerene checked again and Kempe fired another 17,500. Tollerene called as his time was running out and the {q-Clubs} completed the board. The action slowed down as both players checked. Tollerene tabled {6-Spades}{5-Clubs} but could not beat the {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} of Kempe.
