Kurganov Gets Tricky with Aces

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Sorel Mizzi opened to 24,000 in middle position, and Igor Kurganov and Fady Kamar called out of the blinds. The two blinds checked when the flop fell {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}, and Mizzi continued for 28,000. Only Kurganov called.

The turn was the {8-Diamonds}, Kurganov checked again, and Mizzi tossed out another 60,000. Kurganov called.

The river was the {5-Hearts}, Kurganov checked a third time, and Mizzi checked behind, showing {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}. Kurganov had that beat with {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}, and raked in the pot.
