Eric Kurtzman:
Chance Kornuth:
In normal no-limit hold'em Kornuth would be flipping and a slight underdog to send Kurtzman to the rail, but in short deck hold'em he was now almost a 60% favourite to win the pot.
The turn was the but the river was the completing his straight and eliminating Kurtzman. This was Kurtzman's 15th WSOP cash and his biggest since a runner-up in the 2017 $10,000 Razz Championship for $163,867.
