Kornuth Immediately Doubles Up
Level 21
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
It didn’t take long for action to heat up on Day 3.
Biao Ding moved all in on the button with 5?5? and action folded to Chance Kornuth, who looked down at A?Q? and moved all in to put himself at risk.
The dealer ran out 6?Q?J?, putting Kornuth in the lead over Ding’s small pocket pair. Ding had two outs remaining, but neither appeared as J? arrived on the turn and 10? on the river.
Kornuth secured a 9,075,000 pot for his double up.
