Kornuth Gone Short of the Money

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

As the field approaches the money, play has understandably slowed down, to the irritation of some players. Chance Kornuth, however, has been having some fun with his stalling tactics, joking around with the rest of the table. "It's painful to stall, may as well have some fun with it," he said as he took an inordinately long amount of time to release his small blind.

A couple of hands later Kornuth did move his stack into the middle from the button and was called by Felipe Ketzer out of the big blind.

Konruth was in a deep hole though the did give him some additional outs. He could not hit on the turn or river sending him to the rail just a few spots off the money.
