Kornuth Gives Up on the River
Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Chance Kornuth limped under the gun followed by Jason Wheeler in the hijack, Alberto Fonseca in the cutoff and the small blind before the big checked his option.
When the 10♠7♥6♦ flop hit the felt, the action checked to Kornuth who fired 36,000 across the line. Only Fonseca made the call.
The J♥ fell on the turn and Kornuth announced a pot-sized bet of 144,000, and Fonseca stuck around with a call.
The 7♠ fell on the river and Kornuth snap-checked. Fonseca eyed his stack for a couple of seconds before pushing a bet of 250,000 across the line and Kornuth snap-mucked.
