Hart Spikes the Turn to Bust Kortas
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Brent Hart was in middle position and three-bet to 7,500. Ghattas Kortas then four-bet to 22,000 under the gun and Hart called.
The flop came 5♥6♦8♦ and Kortas bet 12,000. Hart called to the J♠ turn, where Kortas bet 35,000 leaving himself just one chip behind. Hart moved all in and Kortas put in his last chip.
Hart turned over J♣J♦ for a turned set and Kortas slammed down A♠A♦. The river was the Q♦ and Hart secured the pot to send Kortas to the rail.
"What can I do? Some people are just luckier than others," Kortas said.
"If you shove the flop I fold," Hart, who won his first WSOP bracelet earlier this summer, replied.
