Rigby Calls Turn Card, Coolers Kornuth to Near Chip Lead

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Chance Kornuth Eliminated By Nick Rigby

Nicholas Rigby opened to 100,000 on the button and Chance Kornuth, who had just moved to the feature table after a table break, three-bet to 385,000 from the big blind. Rigby responded with a four-bet jam and Kornuth called off for around 3,100,000.

Chance Kornuth: A?K?
Nicholas Rigby: A?A?

Kornuth had a premium holding but Rigby didn't have the "Dirty Diaper" this time. Rigby had aces and kept the lead as the flop landed and innocuous J?2?9?.

"Four of diamonds," Rigby said quietly as he sweated the turn card. Rigby then jumped in the air as the dealer put down the 4? on the turn.

"Let's go!" he cheered as he ran to his rail.

Kornuth, who has had a fantastic summer that has included multiple high-roller final table appearances, was drawing stone dead before the 10? bricked off on the river to earn Rigby the massive pot.

"We got no beef with him!" someone on Rigby's rail yelled.

"Yeah, no beef," Rigby before shaking Kornuth's hand.

Rigby has been chip leader at multiple points throughout the tournament and appears to be near that same position with a stack of around 7,000,000.
