Kornuth Outmuscles Sanchez
Level 19
: 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Chance Kornuth opened to 24,000 from early position and received a single call from Diego Sanchez out of the big blind.
Sanchez checked on a flop of 
and then raised to 70,000 after Kornuth bet 22,000. Kornuth was not going anywhere just yet and made the call to send the two players to the turn.
On the 
turn Sanchez continued his aggression with a bet of 110,000. Kornuth responded by moving all in, causing Sanchez to go into the tank. "Sorry guys," Sanchez said after a few minutes as Kornuth wiped his brow with his sleeve. Eventually, deciding he was beat, Sanchez folded to send Kornuth's stack shooting up above 600,000.
