Kornuth KO's Silberzweig

Over on the feature table, Matthew Silberzweig raised it up to 31,000 in middle position. It folded around to Chance Kornuth in the big blind, and he moved all in, which put Silberzweig to a decision for the rest of his 330,000. He made the call, and when the cards were tabled, he was out in front.

Kornuth: {q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}
Silberzweig: {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}

Kornuth was looking for a queen or a three, and he caught that queen when the flop came {5-Hearts}{q-Spades}{8-Hearts}. The {6-Clubs} on the turn was no help for Silberzweig, and the river came the {2-Spades}. Silberzweig headed to the rail, while Kornuth collected the chips, and is now over a million.
