Kornuth Chops One Up

Picking up the action on the river, Chance Kornuth in middle position was involved in a hand with an opponent from under the gun.

With the board reading J♠2♦9♣10♣9♠ and around 90,000 already in the pot, the under the gun player led out for 66,500. Kornuth burned through a time extension before announcing all in, covering his opponent, who had roughly 140,000 behind. The under the gun player went deep into the tank, also using a time extension before eventually making the call holding K♥Q♥.

Kornuth turned over K♦Q♠ and the two players chopped up the pot with the identical straight.
