Chance Kornuth
Chance Kornuth

Chance Kornuth opened to 12,000 from the hijack and was called by Stephen Chidwick in the cutoff and Vinny Lingham on the button.

Everyone checked on the 2♣7♣7♦ flop and Kornuth checked again to Chidwick, who bet 14,000 on the 3♣ turn. Lingham got out of the way and Kornuth called.

The 10♣ river brought three clubs on board and Kornuth led out for 18,000. Chidwick wasted little time calling and Kornuth turned over K♣Q♣ for a flush.

Chidwick mucked his hand and Kornuth collected the chips.
