Ausmus Gets Back to Starting Stack
Level 3
: 400/800, 0 ante
It was a rough start for Jeremy Ausmus who just bought into the tournament at the start of the level but he just won a healthy pot to get back to nearly a starting stack. Ausmus opened from middle position and was called by the button and Eric Kurtzman in the big blind.
The flop came 
and Kurtzman led out from the big blind. Ausmus raised and the button re-raised. Both Kurtzman and Ausmus called.
The turn was the 
and the action checked around to the 
on the river. Kurtzman led out again and Ausmus threw in a raise. The button folded and Kurtzman re-raised. Ausmus thought for a moment before making the call. Kurtzman tabled 
for two pair but Ausmus held 
for a rivered straight.
