Kornuth Doubles Again
Level 19
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Artur Martirosian raised to 200,000 from middle position and Chance Kornuth three-bet to 900,000 with just 50,000 behind in the cutoff. Martirosian jammed and Kornuth called.
Chance Kornuth: A♣K♣
Artur Martirosian: Q♥Q♣
Kornuth was at risk once again, and once again he woke up with a premium hand, although this time he had run into the queens of Martirosian.
The A♥10♦8♣ flop propelled Kornuth into the lead with top pair, and he stayed there through the 3♣ turn and 10♠ river to secure another double-up.
