Kempe Can't Get Rid of Shorr

Level 2 : 50/100, 100 ante

Rainer Kempe was in middle position, firing 350 into the pot on the {9-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} flop. Shannon Shorr called on the button and they went to the {8-Spades} turn where Kempe continued with a bet of 1,100. Shorr called again.

The {4-Diamonds} river was a blank and Kempe didn't fire the third shell. Shorr knuckled back and Kempe showed {K-Hearts}{Q-Spades} for just king-high. Shorr turned over his {J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and claimed the pot to eclipse the starting line.
