Kulev Continues to Chip Up
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Alex Kulev opened to 10,000 in the cutoff and was called by Lewis Spencer on the button and Pasacal Lefrancois in the big blind.
On the J♣10♥9♥ flop, action was checked to Spencer, who put out a bet of 9,000. Lefrancois called before Kulev produced a check-raise to 40,000. Spencer called and Lefrancois got out of the way.
On the 2♠ turn, Kulev continued to fire, putting out a bet of 75,000. Spencer again called.
The 5♣ completed the board and after some thought, Kulev put out a bet of 200,000, earning a swift fold from Spencer.
