A Look Back at the 2010 $5K PLO: Kornuth vs. Mandel Round I

Level 4 : 100/200, 0 ante

Over at Table 40 is where Chance Kornuth is sitting. As we've mentioned before, Kornuth won last year's $5,000 PLO event. While that was played nine handed and today's event is six handed, Kornuth is essentially the defending champ. Kornuth is currently seated at Table 40 along with a familiar face in Scott Madel. For those with a good memory, you might recall that Kornuth and Mandel have history together, notably that the former player eliminated the latter in fifth place on his way to victory. Here is a look back at that elimination hand as reported in our blog last year:

Chance Kornuth and Scott Mandel were heads up to a raised flop. It came {k-Hearts}{j-Spades}{3-Clubs}, and Mandel checked. Kornuth checked behind to see the {8-Diamonds} on the turn. This time, Mandel bet out 100,000. "How much do you have behind?" Chance asked him.

Kornuth moved his arm from in front of his stack in response. "It hasn't changed."

Chance potted, and they got it all in in under ten seconds. "One out," Mandel said when he saw the bad news.

Mandel: {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{5-Spades} for a set of treys
Kornuth: {8-Spades}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Spades} for a set of eights

Earlier today, Danny Wong was eliminated from the $25k six-max tournament when his set of eights was rivered by an opponent whose set of threes rivered quads. Could it happen again here? The {7-Clubs} on the river said no, and Mandel was sent home in fifth place. Kornuth has even more chips now, with 3.3 million of the 6.9 million in play.
