Igor Kurganov opened for 36,000 and was called by Lo Shing Fung on the button and big blind Dan Cates.
Three players saw a flop of and they all checked to see the turn card
. Kurganov bet 78,000 and when Fung folded Cates asked how much Kurganov had and raised him to 225,000.
Kurganov made the call fairly quickly and they saw a river . Cates bet 378,000 after some mental calculations. Kurganov counted out the calling chips and saw that he would be left with just a pile of yellow T1000 chips. It was effectively an all in bet by Cates.
