Mustapha Kanit Doubles Up Through Kurganov
Level 12
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Igor Kurganov raised to 24,000 and Mustapha Kanit moved all-in for 152,000. The two friends had been amicably chatting away all day next to eachother on the table, but this decision was a big one for Kurganov. He was tormented and probably wasn't helped by Kanit talking to him.
"Are you feeling good?" he asked Kurganov. "I'm feeling good I'm just thinking," came the reply.
Kurganov made the call and both players' cards were turned over.
Kurganov: 
Kanit: 
The board ran out 
and Kanit raked in a pot. "Don't worry Igor, I'm going to send Firaldo to the pub before you," said Kanit, referring to tablemate Niall Farrell's online name
