Andrew Lichtenberger opened under the gun and Igor Kurganov in the cutoff was the only caller. The two of them took a flop of and Lichtenberger checked. Kurganov now bet 3,700 and Lichtenberger check raised to 10,500. Kurganov went into the tank and needed to toss in a time breaker to not run out of time. He eventually raised to 21,000 with 26,600 behind. Lichtenberger needed just a second or five to announce all in. Kurganov made the call with not too happy a face.

The on the turn was of no help to Kurganov and neither was the
on the river.
Kurganov, after having finished second in the $25,000 Challenge late last night, now out in the $100,000 Challenge.
