The Queens Giveth and the Queens Taketh Away
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Yesterday, Kenneth Kemple won with pocket queens versus pocket kings late in the day to stay alive in the tournament. Looking down at Q♠Q♦ again, he raised it up and was met by a three-bet shove from Jordan Schneible.
Kemple called it off and Schneible flipped over A♥K♣ for the classic race. The board came down A♦J♦4♦5♣J♣ and Kemple had to fork over a sizable portion of his stack.
