Murawa Busts Kruger in Massive Pot

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Scott Murawa (from a previous event)

Barry Kruger opened to 30,000 from early position and then called a three-bet to 75,000 from Scott Murawa just one seat to his left. The two saw a {j-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} flop and things escalated... quickly.

Kruger checked, Murawa bet 80,000, Kruger raised to 170,000, Murawa three-bet shoved for about 600,000 and Kruger went into the tank. Kruger would eventually make the call putting himself at risk.

Scott Murawa: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Barry Kruger: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}

Kruger was in trouble and found no help on a {4-Clubs}{7-Clubs} run out to bust in 22nd place.
