Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth limped on the button, Chris Ferguson raised all in from the big blind, and Kornuth called all in for 85,200.

Kornuth: {K-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Ferguson: {8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

The board came down {Q-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades}{J-Clubs}, giving Kornuth a king-high straight to double through Ferguson and take a sizable lead.

A few hands later, Kornuth raised all in from the button and Ferguson called all in for roughly 35,000 with {A-Clubs}{10-Spades}. Kornuth, however, tabled a dominating {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

The board came down {K-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}{4-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, no help to Ferguson, securing a spot for Kornuth in the Round of 32.
