Kornuth and Kurganov Battle Again
Level 20
: 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante
Igor Kurganov raised to 48,000 from the hijack and his neighbor Chance Kornuth three-bet to 130,000 from the cutoff. The button and both blinds released rather quickly but Kurganov called to see a flop.
On 
it was Kurganov who check called a bet of 78,000 and he checked again on the 
turn. Kornuth checked behind and the two of them saw the 
complete the board. Kurganov checked for the third time and Kornuth took his time before betting a mere 85,000. Kurganov sighed, and paused for a bit before reluctantly tossing in the chips to call.
Kornuth showed 
for a small flush, Kurganov tabled 
for the winner.
