Kornuth Put in the Blender

Cottrell van Wingerden

Level 3 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Andrew Lichtenberger opened to 10,000 from early position before Shaneil Stokes three-bet to 24,000 on the button. Chance Kornuth cold called in the big blind while Lichtenberger also came along for the ride.

Action checked to Stokes on the 4?3?8? flop and he continued for 30,000. Kornuth called while Lichtenberger got out of the way.

Kornuth led out 35,000 on the 6? turn but Stokes was not going anywhere, instead making the call.

The 8? river paired the board and saw Kornuth slow down, checking to Stokes, who bet 75,000. Kornuth took a long time to make a decision, burning through two time banks before opting to lay down his hand.
