Jason Koon

In a tale of the “rich get richer”, Jason Koon moved his stack even further out front at the expense of Super High Roller third place finisher Rainer Kempe.

We caught the backend of the action but the end result was Kempe packing up his bag to leave with the board out. As told by Eddy Sabat, there was an all in by Kempe followed by a call when Koon woke up with AsAh in the big blind.

Kempe was dominated with 4s4h and the board ran TcTh3h7sKh to send him out. The hand pushed Koon to new heights and he’s closing on 800,000 with 7.9 million chips in play.

Jason Koon – 690,000 (138 bb)
