Kempe Kicked Out by Phua
Level 6
: 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante
Paul Phua raised to 54,000 from under the gun and Mikita Badziakouski three-bet to 160,000 in the cutoff. Rainer Kempe four-bet shoved for 972,000 in total. Phua used a time-bank and then decided to shove for more, around 1,700,000. Badziakouski looked pained and reluctantly folded but wanted to keep the cards with him.
Rainer Kempe: 
Paul Phua: 
The flop came 
and Badziakouski threw his cards in the muck.
The turn was the 
which meant that a six on the river would chop the pot.
But the river completed the board with the 
for Phua to hit the higher pair of queens to send Kempe packing.
