Kuhn Eliminates Opponent
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The hand began when Merritt Kuhn opened under the gun to 2,500 and was called in the next seat over. It folded to the small blind, who chose to jam for 19,300. Kuhn responded with an all-in of his own as the seat next over folded to put the small blind at risk.
Opponent: K♦Q♥
Merritt Kuhn: A♦K♠
Kuhn was in a favorable position, and the flop did not threaten his lead as it fanned out 10♠7♦6♦. The 9♦ turn gave both players a flush dra,w and Kuhn's ace of diamonds ended up being relevant as the J♦ gave them both a flush.
