Lupuleac Wins a Crucial Flip
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Alexandru Lupuleac raised to 6,000 from early position before Antoine Labaky three-bet to 16.500 from middle position. When it folded back to Lupuleac he four-bet shoved with slightly more chips than Labaky. Labaky thought it over briefly before making the call for his remaining 100,000.
Antoine Labaky: Q♦Q♥ 
Alexandru Lupuleac: A♥K♥
It was a race that would either eliminate Labaky or leave Lupuleac on fumes. The flop of K♦7♥3♦ propelled Lupuleac into the lead with a pair of kings. The 8♣ turn and 7♦ river didn't change anything, and all of Labaky's chips were sent over to Lupuleac.
