Kornuth Drawn and Quartered

Action folded to Stephen Hesse on the button and he raised to 12,000. Adam Kornuth was in the big blind and potted to 39,000, prompting Hesse to four-bet. Kornuth only had around 15,000 behind and called off.

Showdown
Hesse: {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}
Kornuth: {10-Spades}{J-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}

The board ran out {5-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{4-Spades}{A-Diamonds} and at first Kornuth thought they chopped. The table quickly pointed out that Hesse held a flush and the same low, meaning he would received three-quarters of the pot. Nonetheless, Kornuth still seemed happy he survived the hand.
