Katz Picks off Kornuth's Bluff

Level 2 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Action was multiway on a flop of {Q-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} and everyone checked to Chance Kornuth. He put out a bet of 4,500 and Cary Katz called in position. Everyone else folded so they headed to the turn heads-up.

The turn was the {K-Diamonds} and both players checked to see the {A-Diamonds} hit the river. There, Kornuth led out with a bet of 12,500. Katz called quickly.

"Eight-high," Kornuth said, flashing his {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs}. Katz had that beat though with {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts} for a rivered top pair.

Despite losing the small pot, Kornuth is still very healthy with nearly 300,000 while Katz chipped up to just under 200,000.
