Becker Runs Into Kurganov's Big Slick
Level 17
: 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Johannes Becker opened to 125,000 from under the gun and Igor Kurganov stuck in a three-bet on his left. The action folded back to Becker who four-bet shoved all in and Kurganov snapped him off.
Igor Kurganov: 
Johannes Becker: 
The flop fell 
giving both players a pair, Kurganov with the higher of the two. The 
and 
runout could not help Becker and he was eliminated. The final 24 players will now redraw for seats at the final three tables.
