Another Big Pot for Tsoukernik
Leon Tsoukernik will not be one player to shy away from the action with all of the biggest names in poker, and he is proving he can battle with the best of them today. It also helps when he gets cards. Tsoukernik raised to 1,200,000 from under the gun and Sam Chartier shipped all in for 6,800,000 on his left. Chance Kornuth flat-called in middle position and the action folded back to Tsoukernik who re-shoved all in for 12,150,000. Kornuth quickly called and all of the hands were face up.
Leon Tsoukernik:
Chance Kornuth:
Sam Chartier:
Tsoukernik was in a great position to double up his stack and take out Chartier. The board ran out and Tsoukernik held on for the win. He's been riding the waves of tournament poker for the entire day but that is expected when you are playing a lot of pots.
