Kurganov's Belief in Hearts Doesn't Deliver Salvation

Level 7 : 300/600, 100 ante
Igor Kurganov
Igor Kurganov

It's been a rough day for Igor Kurganov. He was the defending champ in the $25,000 Challenge, but he fired two bullets in that event before jumping into the Main. Unfortunately for him, his luck didn't change.

In a recent hand, Brendan Hurtig opened for 1,400 from the hijack, the mall blind called, and Kurganov came along from the big. Two checks on the {4-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop saw Hurtig bet 1,600, the small blind folded, and Kurganov sprung to life with an all-in check-raise to 11,600. Hurtig snap-called and the cards were turned up.

Kurganov: {7-Hearts}{9-Spades}
Hurtig: {k-Spades}{k-Clubs}

"Hearts," Kurganov said in reference to his backdoor flush draw. "Believe in the hearts." Kurganov seemed optimistic, but his heart hopes died when the {A-Spades} blanked on the turn. Kurganov waited patiently to see if his open-ended straight draw would come in, but it did not as the {A-Diamonds} peeled off on the river.

"At least I got a free water," Kurganov joked before grabbing his things (which included a bottle of water) and exiting the tournament floor.
