Kempe's Big Slick is No Good

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Elias Talvitie opened to 25,000 from under the gun and Sean Winter called from the hijack. Rainer Kempe slid out a three-bet of around 300,000 for nearly his entire stack. Talvitie quickly folded but Winter announced all in which Kempe instantly called.

Sean Winter: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Rainer Kempe: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

In a classic coin flip, the flop came {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} which left Kempe grasping at straws. The {9-Clubs} on the turn and the {2-Clubs} on the river changed nothing and Kempe was forced to the rail.
