Kolev Hits Quads to Become the New Chip Leader
Level 24
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
When it folded to Boris Kolev in the small blind, he raised to 2,000,000 with just the chip leader, Rafael Aslanli, to get through in the big blind. Aslanli called to see a flop.
Kolev bet 3,000,000 on the A♥K♣Q♣ flop and Aslanli quickly called.
The turn came the Q♦ and Kolev fired again for 3,000,000. Aslanli called once more.
Upon seeing the 10♣ land on the river, Kolev bet another 3,000,000. Aslanli leaned back in his chair before he raised to 7,000,000. Kolev did some inventory and then three-bet to 20,000,000. Aslanli quickly called and Kolev turned over Q♠Q♥ for quad queens. Aslanli mucked and Kolev became the new chip leader.
