Thorel Discards an Ace, Still Busts Kulev
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel was under the gun but accidentally had the A♦ exposed and discarded. He ended up limping in again as the table folded to Alex Kulev who moved all in for 231,000 in middle position. Thorel snap-called.
Alex Kulev: K♣Q♠
Jean-Noel Thorel: A♠K♠
Thorel had woken up with another big hand and had Kulev dominated. The board ran out 5♣10♦4♦8♠4♥ and Kulev was eliminated as Thorel said he would've have two aces if he kept the discarded one.
