Kempe’s amazing Aussie Millions ended with a fourth-place finish after a cooler saw him run AQdd into the pocket kings of Passet. The German went on a little run after the elimination of Kempe, taking the chip lead, until Katz found pocket aces to double into the lead AA>< 99 to finish a scenic tour force of a run that saw the pub game mill turn a$ 130 satellite right into $350,417.
