Kempson Kings Crack Theologis Aces
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Corey Kempson opened from the hijack to 4,000, and once it folded to Alexandros Theologis on the button, he three-bet to 15,000. It folded back to Kempson, who four-bet to 45,000. Theologis then clicked it back, five-betting to 82,000. Kempson put in a six-bet shove for Theologis's stack of 262,000, which he snap-called.
Alexandros Theologis: A♣A♦ 
Corey Kempson: K♥K♦
It was the ultimate cooler for Kempson, that was until the flop came Q♠7♠K♣ giving him top set and putting Theologis and his aces on the brink of elimination. He was unable to find any help on the 2♦4♥ runout, sending Theologis out, and Kempson to the top of the chip counts.
