Igor Kurganov is the Champion... Not!

Daniel Negreanu raised to 160,000 and after a slightly longer than normal dwell, Igor Kurganov made the call. The flop was {10-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} and Negreanu pumped the pot up with a check-raise to 380,000 after Kurganov had bet 180,000. The ever calm Kurganov made the call and we moved to the turn. The dealer threw the {K-Diamonds} down and Kurganov bet 600,000. After a quick count Negreanu moved all-in and Kurganov called.

Kurganov{A-Hearts} {10-Clubs}
Negreanu{10-Spades} {8-Spades}

"It's a cooler...what a cooler," said Negreanu when he saw the cards of Kurganov.

Everybody crowded in around the table as Igor Kurganov was one card away from being crowned the High Roller Champion.

River: {K-Hearts}

"Chop it up," said a very calm Daniel Negreanu

Heads-Up Action

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 5,000 ante
Negreanu siding in a bet
Negreanu siding in a bet

Daniel Negreanu raised to 160,000 and Igor Kurganov called. The flop was {10-Spades} {8-Hearts} {6-Clubs} and Kurganov check-called a 200,000 Negreanu bet. The turn {2-Diamonds} was checked through and the last card was the {2-Diamonds}. Kurganov checked, Negreanu bet 325,000 and it was enough to win the pot.

"Go Daniel," shouted Mercier in a very glum voice.

Apparently, if Negreanu should win then Mercier will owe him 25k in a side bet hence the glum cheer from the rail.

Daniel Negreanu

Daniel Negreanu limped from the small blind and Igor Kurganov checked in the big blind. The flop was {J-Spades} {7-Hearts} {4-Clubs} and Negreanu called a 120,000 Kurganov bet. The turn paired the board when the {J-Diamonds} showed an appearance and this time Kurganov changed tact when he checked. Negreanu bet 230,000 and Kurganov made the call. The final card was the {8-Spades} and Kurganov checked again. Negreanu quickly reached into his stack and pulled out a tower of red 25k chips and pushed 550,000 into the middle. Kurganov tanked for the longest time but eventually did make the call.

"I have a jack," said Negreanu.

He turned over {J-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} and Kurganov mucked his hand.

Igor Kurganov raised to 120,000 and Daniel Negreanu called.

"Let's check in the dark��something different," said Negreanu.

The dealer gave us a flop of {10-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {3-Clubs} and as Negreanu had already checked, Kurganov bet 100,000. Negreanu peeked at his cards and made the call. On the turn we saw the {9-Diamonds} and the same action ensued except this time Negreanu was no longer in the dark. Kurganov made it 290,000 and Negreanu made the call. The final card was the {Q-Diamonds}, Negreanu checked and Kurganov bet 650,000.

"I would like a different river card please��count that," Said Negreanu pointing at first to the {Q-Diamonds} and then his opponents bet.

In the end Negreanu folded his hand and Kurganov continued to extend his lead at the top.

Kurganov Surges to the Front

Igor Kurganov raised to 100,000 from the button and Daniel Negreanu called from the big blind. On the {Q-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts} flop, Negreanu led for 150,000 and Kurganov called.

The turn was the {3-Spades} and both players checked to see the {K-Diamonds} land on the river. Negreanu fired 365,000 and Kurganov fired back with a raise to what looked to be 865,000. Negreanu was verbal in stating that he didn't expect the raise and then folded his hand. Kurganov offered that Negreanu could pick one card, but Negreanu said he didn't need to see it.
