Ian O’Hara opened to 2,800 in early position, and Chance Kornuth called in the cutoff. Dan Shak three-bet to 12,500 in the small blind, O’Hara folded, and Kornuth called the remainder.

The flop was Th9h5h and Shak made a covering bet of 75,000. Kornuth called all in for 61,300, putting himself at risk.

Kornuth: AhQc
Shak: KhKc

Kornuth had the nut flush draw, but he ended up not needing a heart. The Ad on the turn gave him a big lead with one to come, and the blank 5c river secured his double-up.

Chance Kornuth – 128,000
Dan Shak – 27,500
