Kempson Pays Off Zhang

Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Xiaojun Zhang opened the action with a raise to 1,000 from late position with Corey Kempson defending from the big blind to take play heads-up to a flop of {9-Clubs}{3-Hearts}{q-Spades}.

Kempson checked the action over to Zhang, who fired out a 1,000 continuation bet, with Kempson making the call to keep the two in action to the {6-Hearts} turn, with the action going check, check.

The {7-Spades} river saw Kempson take a stab for 3,000 with Zhang re-popping to 8,000. After several minutes in the tank, Kempson made the call, but mucked when Zhang revealed {8-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}.

Zhang climbed to 40,000 after the hand, while Kempson dropped down to 43,100.
