Ivanov Cracks Gulseven's Cowboys in Half-a-Million Chip Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Nikolai Ivanov raised under the gun to 6,000 and Erdal Gulseven three-bet to 18,000 out of the big blind. Ivanov called.
Gulseven quickly bet 11,000 on the 2♦2♠4♠ flop and Ivanov stuck around in the form of a call.
Gulseven fired a second barrel of 30,000 when he saw the 9♦ hit the turn. Again, Ivanov called.
A 3♣ completed the board, and Gulseven gathered together a bet totalling 60,000. Ivanov did an inventory of his stack, which was around 245,500, and then announced all-in.
Gulseven went deep into the tank and was visibly distressed by the spot he was in. After a few minutes, Gulseven called, and Ivanov turned over a rivered straight with 6♠5♠. Gulseven mucked his K♥K♦, and the pot over over half a million headed over to Ivanov.
