Kempe Finds Lucky Double
Level 9
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Rainer Kempe was down to 96,000 and moved in from the hijack. Action folded to Isaac Haxton in the small blind and he asked for a call. Once told it was just under 100,000, he called. Ben Tollerene in the big blind folded right away.
Rainer Kempe: 
Isaac Haxton: 
The flop of 
did nothing for anyone, but the 
on the turn made things interesting. Kempe picked up some new outs but Haxton had all spades going for him.
The 
on the river was good for Kempe, and he sat silently while the dealer got busy taking Haxton's chips. Double up for Kempe,
