Nolan Flips Kuch to the Rail
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
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: 9♠9♣
Karl Nolan: K♥Q♣
The window king on the K♣5♦7♥ 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.
