Kurganov Runs Into a Monster, Rivers a Straight
Level 16
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The action folded around to Igor Kurganov in the small blind who pushed all in for 92,000. He was met with a snap-call by Richard Seymour and was in terrible shape heading to the flop.
Seymour tabled 
and Kurganov had a couple of suited cards with 
. The flop came 
and Kurganov picked up a straight draw. The 
on the turn was of no help, but the 
on the river saved his tournament life as he scored a full double up through Seymour.
