Kurganov Picks Off Juanda's Bluff

Level 5 : 400/800, 100 ante

With 4,300 in the pot on a final board of {9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}, John Juanda checked to Igor Kurganov. Kurganov bet 2,100, and Juanda tanked for a little bit before he check-raised to 20,000. Kurganov then went into the tank, and he eventually made the call. Juanda turned up the {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds} for ace high, and it was Kurganov's {Q-Spades}{8-Hearts} for a pair of eights that won the pot.
