Kornuth Doubles Pispala
Level 19
No-Limit Hold'em
In early position, Mikko Pispala opened to 9,000, and Adam Kornuth called from the hijack.
The two were heads-up on the flop, and Pispala gave up control of the betting, check-calling a bet of 12,000 instead. The turn drew another check from Pispala, and Kornuth made a healthy bet of 45,000. Pispala's response was an all-in shove for 102,200, and Kornuth made the call to put him at risk.
Showdown
Pispala:
Kornuth:
Kornuth was drawing, and Pispala's lowly pair of threes were in front. He had to fade a lot of outs, though, and the river was clean and safe. Threes hold, and he's up to 252,000 now, knocking Kornuth back to 170,000.
