Kornuth Picks Off Hallay's Triple-Barrel Bluff

Calum Grant

Level 20 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Axel Hallay opened 250,000 from the hijack, and Chance Kornuth defended his big blind to the K?9?4? flop. Kornuth check-called for 150,000 and did the same for 750,000 on the 5? turn.

Kornuth checked for a third time on the Q? river, and Hallay moved all in as the bigger stack. Kornuth quickly called off his remaining 2,425,000 and the cards were tabled.

Hallay bluffed for three streets with his A?2?, which was just ace-high. Kornuth called with K?9? and scooped the pot with his two pair.
