Pak's Cowboys Send Gungoren's Jacks to the Rail

Level 18
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Aleksandr Pak in the cutoff and Gurcan Gungoren in the small blind got their chips into the middle preflop with very similar stacks, but it was the latter at risk for around 675,000.
Gurcan Gungoren: J♠J♥
Aleksandr Pak: K♣K♠
Pak had the advantage going to the runout and stayed in the lead on the 10♥7♣4♠ flop. The 3♥ turn did put some chop opportunities out there as any six would put a straight on board, however the 3♦ river was a brick, which meant Gungoren was eliminated.
