Kurganov Doesn't Take the Bait
Level 9
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Jason Koon opened the cutoff to 10,000 and Igor Kurganov on the button made the call. Sam Greenwood squeezed to 35,000 from the small blind and the big blind (Holz) and Koon both folded. Kurganov made the call.
Greenwood checked on 
and Kurganov checked behind. We saw something similar on the 
turn and the 
hit the river. Greenwood checked again and Kurganov tanked for a bit. His 30 seconds were almost up when he tossed in a time breaker chip to get one more minute.
He eventually checked behind and Greenwood showed 
for the ace-high flush. Kurganov silently mucked.
