First Blood Goes to Kornuth
Level 24
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 0 ante
Landon Tice raised to 6,000 on the button and Chance Kornuth defended from the big blind. The flop came A♣Q♥9♠ and Kornuth check-called a bet of 3,000 from Tice.
The turn brought the 7♥ and Kornuth checked again. Tice sized up a large bet of 24,000 and Kornuth stuck around for the 2♣ on the river. Kornuth checked once more and Tice gave up as he checked it back. Kornuth tabled A♠3♣ for top pair and was awarded the pot.
