Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth got a beautiful river card to keep his heads-up bracelet hopes alive and take the chip lead over Marius Gierse.

Both players got their stacks in preflop, with Kornuth's {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds} going up against Gierse's {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}.

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{4-}{3-} with Kornuth turning a two-out gutshot with a {9-}.

Kornuth would river a {q-} to make Gierse howl "Nooooooo", to which Kornuth replied "Yessssssssss."
