Kurganov Busted First Again

Level 1 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Igor Kurganov
Igor Kurganov

Igor Kurganov was the first player to go bust in Event #1, and he followed suit in Event #2.

This time, he bet 11,500 into 17,500 on the river from the big blind. The board read {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}. Brian Rast moved all in, covering Kurganov's 65,000 or so. Kurganov used a time extension then dropped in calling chips.

Rast showed {a-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for the flopped flush and Kurganov flung his cards into the muck.

"Ace-ten," he said. "Guess I can catch a flight now."
