Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth opened to 4,000 from the hijack and Dario Sammartino three-bet to 16,000 from the small blind. Kornuth would take his time before virtually shoving, leaving a few chips behind. Sammartino went over the top and Kornuth was all in for 58,500 total.

Chance Kornuth: {k-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Dario Sammartino: {10-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}

In a classic flip, the flop came {8-Clubs}{7-Spades}{k-Diamonds} giving Kornuth the outright advantage.

The turn brought the {7-Clubs}, which had Sammartino drawing to just two outs.

The river was the {j-Clubs} and Kornuth would double his stack to over 120,000.
