Kornechuk Makes Good Call
Level 11
: 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante
On a turn reading 
, Paul Miler led out 50,000 from the small blind, getting a fold from Mathias Wessel in the big. Action stopped at Thomas Kornechuk who called from the hijack.
The 
landed on the river and Miller announced a bet of 110,000. Kornechuk took two minutes to figure out his decision, knowing a potentially wrong call would have cost severe damage to his remaining stack.
Kornechuk, however, convinced himself to go for it and he slid forward calling chips.
"You got it," Miller said and Kornechuk showed 
to scoop the hefty pot.
