Kurganov Sends O'Dwyer to the Rail

Level 6 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Igro Kurganov
Igro Kurganov

Igor Kurganov opened to 6,000 from the hijack, only to have Chance Kornuth re-raise to 20,000 directly to his left. Steve O'Dwyer was in the big blind and stuck in his last 11,000 chips. With the action back on Kurganov, he splashed in a four-bet to 46,000, which quickly prompted a fold from Kornuth.

Igor Kurganov: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Steve O'Dwyer: {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

The flop came {j-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} and O'Dwyer was barely hanging out with his pair of threes. The turn brought the {k-Hearts} and Kurganov took the lead with a pair of kings, and held on when the {2-Clubs} fell on the river.
