Tulepbergenov Regrets His Bet
Level 8
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Samy Barka bet 5,000 from the cutoff on a flop of 10♠4♠K♦ and Azamat Tulepbergenov raised to 23,000 on the button. Marius Kudzmanas called in the hijack, as did Barka.
The turn was the K♣ and Tulepbergenov bet 35,000. Kudzmanas quickly folded, while Barka tanked for a moment before also joining the muck.
"I should've checked," Tulepbergenov said as he turned over K♥10♥ for a full house. Despite losing that pot, Barka has built up a stack of around 500,000 and is in contention for the chip lead.
