Miracle Flop for Kornuth

Level 10 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

The action folded to Chance Kornuth who raised it up on the button. Igor Kurganov three-bet to 126,000 in the big blind and Kornuth called to see a flop of {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}.

Kurganov just ripped all in for around 400,000 and Kornuth wasted little time before making the call. Kornuth instantly tabled {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs} and Kurganov was drawing slim with {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}.

The {j-Spades} paired the board on the turn which gave Kurganov some outs but the {5-Hearts} on the river was not meant to be as Kornuth collected a chip-leading pot.
