Kornuth Applies Maximum Pressure
Level 7
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Chance Kornuth opened to 20,000 from early position and received calls from Isaac Haxton in the cutoff, a player in the small blind and Yang Wang in the big blind.
The flop came 10♣J♠5♦ and both blinds checked. Kornuth bet 20,000 again and received a call only from Wang.
Both players checked the J♣ turn leading to the 2♥ on the river. Yang checked again and folded when Kornuth bet enough to put Yang all in for his tournament life.
