Nolan Flips Kuch to the Rail

Level 22 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Benjamin Kuch
Benjamin Kuch

Benjamin Kuch opened to 55,000 in early position and found himself facing a three-bet to 225,000 from Karl Nolan in the small blind. Kuch responded by moving all in for 500,000, and Nolan called.

Benjamin Kuch: 99 All in
Karl Nolan: KQ

The window king on the K57 flop had Kuch in a world of trouble, and although the 8 turn provided some extra ways to win, the Q river only served to improve Nolan to two pair.
