Kurganov Doubles; Finger Triples in Same Hand

Igor Kurganov raised to 4,800 from the cutoff only to have Ami Barer three-bet to 11,700 from the button. Martin Finger called off his last 5,000 from the big blind, Kurganov called Barer's raise, and a side pot was created heading into the flop.

Kurganov check-called a bet of 9,900 and then checked for a second time on the turn. Barer moved all in and Kurganov reluctantly called off for 31,500.

Kurganov:
Barer:
Finger:

All three players were drawing live, meaning the river could have big implications. It did too, at least for Finger as the gave him two pair to triple. Meanwhile, Kurganov won the side pot with a pair of kings.
