Kurganov Flushed Away on First Hand of Day 2

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

It took just one hand for the first player to bust here on Day 2.

We're not sure how the preflop action unfolded, but we do know Igor Kurganov, who began the day as the short stack, got his stack of 136,000 all in from the button and Scott Seiver, who began the day as the second-biggest stack, had him at risk from the big blind.

Kurganov: {k-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Seiver: {k-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

Kurganov had some kicker problems, and matters didn't improve when the {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{7-Hearts} flop gave Seiver a flush draw. The {A-Clubs} turn put some chop options out there, and Kurganov initially thought that's what happened when the {A-Hearts} completed the board on the river.

"Good game, Igor," Seiver offered before pointing out he had made a flush.
