Kurtulus Gains Lead With Huge Raise
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Matan Krakow made it 500,000 on his button with Q♣10♠. The card reader only picked up Bora Kurtulus' 10♣ in the big blind, and he called his mystery hand.
Kurtulus checked to Krakow on the 5♥4♠J♣ flop. Krakow continued with a bet of 400,000, prompting Kurtulus to quickly pile in a raise to 2,000,000.
Krakow let go of his queen-high after some inner debate. The chips were shipped to Kurtulus, who gained a narrow edge over his heads-up opponent.
