Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Stephen Kurland got his last 55,000 into the middle on the Q♥J♦9♥ flop when BC Van Rooyen bet big and the following showdown emerged.
Stephen Kurland: 10♣5♣
BC Van Rooyen: K♦Q♣
The open-ended straight draw of Kurland missed on the 5♦ turn and A♥ river and that knocked the field down to the last 16 players for the Day 1c bubble.
