Olaisen Doubles in Huge Cooler; Blomberg Busts to Kapanadze
Level 26
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Tomas Bulksas opened to 80,000 in the hijack. Kenneth Olaisen fired a three-bet to 200,000 in the small blind, and Bulksas flat-called.
Olaisen bet big on the 6♥7♣4♠ flop, sliding in a bet of 450,000. Bulksas thought for a bit, then moved all in. Olaisen immediatelly called off for 1,050,000.
Kenneth Olaisen: A♠A♣
Tomas Bulksas: K♠K♦
Bulksas had just two outs against Olaisen's aces. No king came on the 10♦ turn or J♥ river, doubling Olaisen to a stack of over 60 big blinds.
Just before this hand, start-of-day chipleader John Blomberg had been eliminated in a big pot against Sergi Kapanadze, giving the latter a stack of around 70 big blinds.
