Kempe Not Afraid of the Kings
Level 8
: 250/500, 75 ante
Jameson Painter wasn't sitting in his original seat anymore and has been replaced by Rainer Kempe. Alexander Lakhov, who busted earlier, has reentered and taken a seat at the same table but seems to have lost it all again as Ben Palmer has taken his seat now.
The player in early position raised to 500 and the player in the hijack three-bet to 1,200. Rainer Kempe four-bet to 3,800 from the small blind. The initial raiser folded and the hijack called.
The flop came 
, Kempe bet 2,700 and his opponent shoved with the bigger stack. Kempe snap-called.
Rainer Kempe: 
Hijack: 
The rest of the board was completed with the 
on the turn and the 
on the river to provide Kempe with a double-up.
