Kornuth Wins at Showdown
Level 21
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Axel Hallay opened to 350,000 from the button with A♣Q♥ and Chance Kornuth defended his big blind with K♣3♣.
Hallay's hand remained best on the 9♣8♣7♠ flop but Kornuth picked up the king-high flush draw. Action checked through to the 3♥ turn to give Kornuth the lead with a pair of threes. Both players checked again which brought in the 5♦ river.
For a third time, the action checked through and Kornuth took the pot.
