Stefanski Wins Massive Pot; Busts Kourdourli

As we were watching the action at another table, Nesrine Kourdourli came over to a friend. "I'm out," she said.

"Really??" he replied.

Having counted her at about 165,000 not long ago, somebody at her table was going to have a good amount of chips. David Stefanski, who had a healthy stack of about 150,000 last time we counted him, now had about 330,000 in front of him and was kind enough to give us the details.

After a player in early position opened to 2,200, Stefanski called in the cutoff. Kourdourli called from the button, Mike Dentale called from the big blind, and the flop came down with two clubs. Dentale checked to the original raiser who bet 3,800. Both Stefanski and Kourdourli called, Dentale folded, and the hit the turn, putting two spades on the board as well.

The original raiser checked, Stefanski bet 10,500, but Kourdourli raised to 24,000. The original raiser ducked out of the way and Stefanski near clicked it back to 38,000. A call from Kourdourli landed the on the river where Stefanski bet about 28,000, leading to a Kourdourli shove for roughly 115,000.
