Kempe Loses a Bunch to Kisacikoglu
Level 8
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Rainer Kempe opened to 170,000 with the 
on the button and Orpen Kisacikoglu defended the big blind with 
. The flop came 
and Kisacikoglu check-called a bet of 120,000.
Kisacikoglu picked up a flushdraw on the 
turn and bet 400,000, which Kempe called. After the 
river, Kisacikoglu made his flush and bet 4,000,000 to give Kempe the option to call all-in or fold with fewer than half the starting stack behind. He used a time-bank extension and indeed folded trips jacks.
