Easy Come, Easy Go for Kornuth
Level 5
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
After just claiming a victim not long ago, Chance Kornuth was building a healthy stack deep into Day 1. In a heads-up pot with Isaac Haxton, a completed board of Q♣10♠3♥10♣6♥ was spread across the table with a little over 300,000 in the pot.
Kornuth led out from the big blind with an overbet of 555,000. Haxton gave it some thought for a minute and then flicked in a chip to call. Kornuth tabled J♥9♥ for a missed straight draw while Haxton showed AxQx for the best hand.
