Yazbeck Busts Kempson

Level 3 : 200/400, 400 ante
Mark Yazbeck
Mark Yazbeck

In a battle of players on their second bullet for the event, Corey Kempson raised and Mark Yazbeck tossed in too many chips to make it a min-three-bet, which Kempson called. On the {j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop, Kempson check-raised from 1,400 to 4,200 and Yazbeck called to see the {7-Diamonds} turn.

Kempson shoved for what appeared to be 6,200 and Yazbeck quickly called.

Corey Kempson: {k-Clubs}{2-Clubs}
Mark Yazbeck: {7-Hearts}{5-Clubs}

The {5-Diamonds} river improved Yazbeck to a full house and Kempson will likely be back for the third bullet soon.
