Hand 1:

We got to the table to see {K-Hearts}{J-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} on the board and Rainer Kempe, in the big blind, all-in. The player in the cutoff position was taking his time to make a decision as Kempe had him covered but ended up calling. Kempe showed {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds} for a full house and the other player got up and walked away as he was out.

Hand 2:

Kempe completed from the small blind and Phil Hellmuth opted to check. The flop came {K-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Hearts}, Hellmuth opened to 1,800 and Kempe called.

The turn was the {2-Spades}, Hellmuth bet 4,200 and Kempe called again.

The {9-Clubs} on the river completed the board.

"I think I have the best hand but I am going to check." Hellmuth said.

Kempe showed {K-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} for top pair and Hellmuth showed {4-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} which wasn't good enough and Kempe could add more chips to his stacks.
