Kornuth Strikes Back
Level 1
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Action was picked up in a four-way pot with Galen Hall in the big blind and Chance Kornuth on the button.
The flop read Q?8?5? and all players checked to the 6? turn where action checked around to Kornuth who bet 5,500. The small blind folded and Hall raised to 21,000 which only Chance called.
On the river 10?, Hall bet 40,000, prompting Kornuth to use a time extension. Kornuth counted out the call, looked over to Hall and then tossed it into the center.
Hall tabled A?5? for just a pair of fives and a flush blocker, which was no good against Kornuth's K?Q? for top pair.
