Kurganov's Shove Goes Through

The action has come to a halt once again and just two minor hands went to a showdown, albeit with barely any action.

Then, Philipp Gruissem raised to 20,000 and Ekrem Sanioglu called in the small blind. Igor Kurganov shoved out of the big blind for 81,000 and both opponents folded. Kurganov forfeited his small blind the next hand when Sanioglu raised the button and won the blinds and antes.
