The River Keeps Kaemmerlen Kicking

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Ken Moore opened for 3,000 under the gun only to have Peter Kaemmerlen, who was next to act, three-bet all in for 19,100. Action folded back around to Moore and he made the call.

Kaemmerlen: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}
Moore: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}

It was a classic flip, but one Kaemmerlen would need to win if he wanted to keep his HPO Grantville Regional hopes alive. The {3-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Hearts} flop was dry, and so was the {6-Spades} turn. That meant Kaemmerlen needed either an ace or king on the river to stay alive, and he found the latter when the {K-Spades} spiked.

"That's why there's an adjective between 'that' and 'river,'" Moore deadpanned while he counted out his chips to pay off Kaemmerlen.
