Kurko Off to a Great Start

 Kimmo Kurko has just eliminated Corbin White at the start of the second level. The elimination pushes Kurko up to around 77,000.

Kurko flatted a White three-bet with [9x] [9x] and landed a beautiful looking flop of [Kx] [9x] [5x]. White, on the other hand, was unfortunate enough to be holding [Ax] [Kx] and he was broke by the river.

White finished runner-up in a $1,500 WSOP back in 2011.
