Curl Out

We caught up to find Alan Curl all in and at risk holding {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} before the flop. Curl was up against Andras Koroknai and Koroknai was sitting pretty with {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

The flop brought {3-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and little hope for Curl. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and suddenly Curl began rooting for a club to strike the river and keep him alive in this tournament. Alas, the river was the {K-Hearts} and Curl's Main Event officially came to an end.

Koroknai, on the other hand, has now passed the two-million chip mark with 2,070,000 in chips.
