Hemming into Chip Lead After Stellar Start

Level 13 : 3,500/7,000, 7,000 ante

Thomas Hemming has had a rocket of a start to his Day 2 campaign, eliminating Konstantinos Tzimas in two hands.

According to partypoker Sponsored Pro Natalia Breviglieri, Hemming opened from under the gun on the very first hand, with Tzimas calling, as well as the big blind.

The flop came {j-}{5-}{2-} with two clubs. The big blind checked and Hemming bet 35,000. Tzimas called and the big blind folded.

The turn was the {2-Clubs} and Hemming bet 85,000. Tzimas moved all in and Hemming tanked for ages before calling. Tzimas showed {9-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for a flush but Hemming held {a-Clubs}{8-Clubs} for the nut flush. The river was a brick and Hemming chipped up.

Then, Hemming finished Tzimas off with {k-}{k-} against Tzimas's {10-}{10-}.
