Robertson Takes From Kempson

Level 24 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Corey Kempson opened to 105,000 from the button and Peter Robertson defended out of the big blind. On a {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop, Robertson checked and called a bet worth 80,000 to see the {3-Clubs} on the turn. Both players checked to the {q-Diamonds} river, on which Robertson checked once more.

Kempson now made it 210,000 to go and Robertson studied the board carefully to make the call after more than a minute of consideration. Kempson rolled over {k-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a pair of eights and Robertson had that beat with {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs} for a rivered pair of queens.
