Tulepbergenov Cannot Beat Jacks
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A player opened to 20,000 from early position and was called by a player in middle position. Azamat Tulepbergenov then three-bet to 79,000 out of the small blind, getting a call from the original raiser and a fold from the middle position player.
Tulepbergenov continued for 100,000 on a flop of 
and was called by his opponent.
Both players checked through the 
turn to the 
river at which point Tulepbergenov checked once more. The early position player checked back and turned over 
, sufficiently strong to down the 
of Tulepbergenov.
