Kornuth Clashes with Castro in Six-Bet Pot

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante

A player from middle position opened to 800 before Chance Kornuth three-bet to 1,600 from the hijack. Leonardo Castro four-bet to 4,500, folding out the player in middle position. Kornuth thought for a moment before putting in a five-bet to 8,400.

The banter at this table had been jovial for the last few levels, and Kornuth exchanged a look with his opponent before they both broke out in laughter. Castro put in a six-bet all in after a moment of consideration.

Kornuth let out an expletive and mucked his cards as Castro scooped a nice pot without having to see a flop.

"That was the first six-bet pot I've seen since 2004" a player at the table joked.
