Kulev Cracks Nikiforov's Aces
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ilya Nikiforov was all in preflop with a short stack and was called by Alex Kulev, who had him well covered as players turned their cards.
Ilya Nikiforov: A♥A♠
Alex Kulev: Q♠J♦
The board ran out Q♦2♦J♥5♥Q♥. Nikiforov had pocket aces, but the runout gave Kulev two pair on the flop and a full house by the river. Nikiforov looked across and smiled as he took his leave.
