Keem Takes Lead With Elimination of Koenigsberg
A massive pot has just seen Sung Keem take over the chip lead while eliminating Andrew Koenigsberg.
Carson Wieland started the action with a raise to 14,000 under the gun. Koenigsberg called before Keem three-bet to 50,000 on the button.
Both opponents called to see the K?6?5? flop, and action checked to Keem who bet 35,000. Again both opponents called.
The trio saw the 6? turn and things got spicy.
Wieland now led for 175,000, Koenigsberg moved all in for 116,000, and Keem then moved in over top for 435,000.
Wieland deliberated for a bit before folding, leaving Keem to cooler Koenigsberg.
Andrew Koenigsberg: 7?7?6?5?
Sung Keem: A?A?K?K?
Keem's kings full had Koenigsberg's sixes full crushed, with the 4? on the river ending his day.
Meanwhile, Michael Kuney was also eliminated at an adjacent table.
