Nitsche Busts to Kurganov

Level 7 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Dominik Nitsche moved all in for his last 50,000 and [Removed:17] called on the button. Igor Kurganov double-checked the remaining stack of Yan and called from the big blind as well. Both remaining active players checked down the board of {10-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} entirely and Nitsche announced "I have an ace and a jack" before turning over {A-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.

Yan mucked and Kurganov flipped over {A-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} as winning hand.
