Kempe Falls Short of the Final Table
Niveau 37
: 1,500,000/3,000,000, 1,500,000 ante
Aymon Hata raised to 7 million on the button and Rainer Kempe announced a raise to 30 million in the small blind, leaving himself with only 6 million behind. Aleksei Istomin used up a time extension in the big blind before re-shoving all in for around 50 million. Hata folded and the remaining two hands were tabled.
Kempe showed 
but was in a world of trouble against the 
of Istomin. The flop of 
gave Kempe a straight draw and some hope. However, the 
on the turn and the 
on the river were no help and he was eliminated eighth place. The final seven players will now redraw for a seat at the unofficial final table.
