Kempe Flushes Nardin

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante
Rainer Kempe (as seen in a previous event)

Romain Nardin open-shoved on the button, and Sam Grafton folded his small blind. Rainer Kempe, a German pro who resides in Brighton, England, didn't seem to be entirely convinced about calling, but he eventually took all his chips in his hand and demonstratively smacked them into the middle.

Kempe held {6-Diamonds}{6-Hearts} and was trailing Nardin's {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

An interesting {4-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Hearts} flop saw Nardin's hand improve to a set but left Kempe on a flush draw. And the dealer The {J-Hearts} on the turn filled that flush, and the {5-Hearts} river secured Kempe's double-up.

Nardin was left with just four antes.
