Kornuth Staying Alive
Level 22
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Chance Kornuth raised to 1,800,000 from under the gun with K♦8♦ and Aleksejs Ponakovs called from the big blind holding J♠10♠.
Kornuth had 550,000 behind when the 5♥2♦K♠ flop was dealt and he flopped top pair, leaving Ponakovs with just 9% to win the hand. Both players checked, and Ponakovs led after the 7♥ turn with a bet putting Kornuth effectively all in and Ponakovs got his money in the middle with no equity after a quick call by Kornuth.
The river was an insignificant Q♣ and Kornuth doubled up, leaving Ponakovs behind with the shortest stack now with just under 13 big blinds.
