Igor Kurganov

Mike Watson raised to 6,000 from the cutoff seat, and Igor Kurganov made the call from the big blind. The dealer put out the {9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{4-Clubs} flop, and both players checked to see the {9-Clubs} pair the board on the turn. Kurganov fired 9,000, and Watson made the call.

The {A-Clubs} finished off the board on the river, and Kurganov checked. Watson checked behind. Kurganov showed the {A-Spades}{7-Hearts} for two pair, aces and nines. Watson mucked, and Kurganov won the pot.
