Brutal Set Over Set to Burst the Bubble

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Giorgiy Skhuluhiya

Oleg Netaliev opened under the gun to 35,000 before getting called by Giorgiy Skhulukhiya in middle position, by the cutoff, and by Rachid Yaacoubi in the big blind.

The 26K flop landed and action checked to Netaliev who continued for 35,000. Skhulukhiya called, the cutoff called, and then Yaacoubi check-raise jammed for 115,000.

Netaliev tanked for a minute and then called before Skhulukhiya also called and the cutoff folded.

The players were heads up to a 4 turn and Netaliev slowed down with a check. Skhulukhiya tanked and then put in a large bet of 215,000. Netaliev thought it over but eventually found a fold. The cards hit their backs and the cooler was real.

Rachid Yaacoubi: 22
Giorgiy Skhulukhiya: 66

It was set over set for a massive cooler and Yaacoubi would only have one out going to the river. That card would not come as the dealer put the 8 out to finish the board. Yaacoubi hit the rail on the stone bubble after a brutal cooler.
