Kornuth Gets the Double Knockout
Action started with a limp under the gun by Chance Kornuth. It folded to Anh Do in middle position who raised to 23,000. It then made it to 2023 bracelet winner Michael Moncek in the big blind who potted it to 77,000. Action was now back on Kornuth who put in the back-four-bet to a pot sizing of 257,000.
Do went into the tank and eventually flat-called with about 100,000 behind. Moncek then went all in for less than the four-bet and the players were off to a flop three ways with Moncek all in.
The 10♣Q♣5♠ flop landed and Kornuth already had enough chips out to cover Do's stack. Do called and the cards hit their backs.
Michael Moncek: A♥7♥K♦8♦
Anh Do: 10♦9♦8♣7♣
Chance Kornuth: A♠A♦J♣J♥
Kornuth was behind in equity going to the turn. It landed a Q♦ giving Kornuth a commanding lead but still needing to fade tons of outs. The river was a 5♥ and Kornuth would scoop a massive pot to vault him even higher on the leaderboard and send two players to the rail.
