Ivanov Triples Up and Mugulov Busts in Battle of Pocket Pairs
The action started with a raise to 6,000 by Nikolay Ivanov and Bleron Maliqi three-bet to 18,000. Steven Mulder four-bet to 42,000 in the small blind and Emin Mugulov in the big blind sighed after glancing at his cards. He eventually jammed for around 60,000 and Ivanov called all-in for 42,500.
"How much are you playing? Around two hundred?" Maliqi inquired with Mulder and then folded.
"I think you have aces but I call," Mulder said and the cards were flipped over.
Nikolay Ivanov: 
Emin Mugulov: 
Steven Mulder: 
The 
flop gave two players a set while Mugulov was alive with a gutshot. He repeatedly asked for for a jack but the wish wasn't granted on the 
turn nor 
river.
"That was beautiful Ma'am," Ivanov concluded the clash of pocket pairs while smiling at the dealer.
