Kurganov Runs Queens Into Kings

Level 18 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Igor Kurganov
Igor Kurganov

One of the two remaining PokerStars Team Pros has been eliminated. It was Igor Kurganov who raised to 24,000 in the cutoff and Julian Stuer three-bet to 78,000 in the big blind. Kurganov four-bet shoved for around 360,000 and Stuer quickly called.

Julian Stuer: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Igor Kurganov: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

"Mamaaa" demanded Kurganov, asking for one of the remaining two queens in the deck. However, he was drawing very thin on the {K-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{5-Clubs} flop and officially drawing dead on the {4-Clubs} turn. The meaningless {Q-Clubs} on the river for the inferior set ended the hand and Kurganov's run in 24th place for €45,820.
