Kempe Pays Off Keating
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Rainer Kempe raised to 16,000 from the cutoff and found one caller in Alex Keating from the big blind.
Both players checked on the K?Q?10? flop and Keating led out for 15,000 on the 9? turn. Kempe called.
The K? completed the board and Keating min-bet for 8,000 �� sending Kempe deep into the tank.
The clock was eventually called on Keating and he made the call with five seconds to go. Keating turned over Q?8? for kings and queens and Kempe mucked �� awarding the pot to Keating as the money bubble draws near.
