Kurganov Culls Buddiga

Level 9 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Pratyush Buddiga
Pratyush Buddiga

Igor Kurganov opened for 9,000 from the hijack and was met by a three-bet to 23,000 from Pratyush Buddiga on the button. The blinds both folded, Kurganov called, and the duo watched the flop fall {j-Spades}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}. Kurganov led out for 22,500, Buddiga called, and the dealer burned and turned the {5-Spades}.

Kurganov moved all in for 65,000, and Buddiga called off for 61,500.

Buddiga: {k-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}
Kurganov: {8-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

Kurganov was ahead with two pair, which meant Buddiga needed to catch on the river to stay alive. The {2-Diamonds} didn't do it, and Buddiga wished the players good luck before heading to the rail.
