Margolin Doubles; Kulyk Busts Soon After
Level 7
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Timur Margolin raised to around 2,800 from the small blind and Artem Kulyk defended out of the big blind.
Upon seeing the K♠4♦2♥ flop, Margolin tossed out a bet of 2,200. Kulyk called.
A 6♦ hit the turn, causing Margolin to fire a second barrel, this time for 5,800. Again, Kulyk called.
The board-pairing 6♣ completed the board, and Margolin jammed for 22,400. Kulyk, with just 100 chips more than Margolin, mulled over the decision for quite some time. In the end, he settled on a call.
Margolin showed K♦Q♥ for top pair, and it was good to earn him the double up, as Kulyk had Q♠2♠ for bottom pair.
Margolin doubled to around 60,000, and Kulyk was eliminated a few hands later.
