Rainer Kempe called and Dario Sammartino opted to check.

The flop came {9-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}, Sammartino check-called the 1,600 bet of Kempe.

The turn brought them the {3-Clubs}, Sammartino check-called again but now Kempe bet 4,100.

The {4-Spades} on the river completed the board, Sammartino checked for the last time. Kempe shoved for 12,000 in total. Sammartino cut out calling chips but tanked for a bit longer. In the end, he called.

Kempe tabled {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs} for top pair. Sammartino tried to muck his hand but Kempe requested to see the hand. Sammartino was forced to show {7-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}.
