Hand #76: Daniel Negreanu opened to 1,200,000 on the button and Igor Kurganov ripped all in for 9,500,000 in the small blind. Keith Tilston also pushed all in from the big blind and Negreanu let out a big yell. "Wow! I was snapping him. I still might call," but he opted to let his 
go to the muck.
Keith Tilston: 
Igor Kurganov: 
The flop came 
and Tilston was still in a commanding lead with his pair of kings. The 
on the turn left Kurganov drawing to just two outs. The river was the 
and Kurganov was ousted in fourth place.
