Kapustin Busy Building Big Stack
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
A player opened to 16,000 from under the gun only to see Denis Kapustin three-bet to 50,000 in the cutoff. The button and blinds folded to send the action back to the under the gun player who decided to call.
The flop came 
and the under the gun player checked to Kapustin who continued for 40,000. That bet alone was enough to get a fold from his opponent and keep Kapustin contending for the tournament chiplead.
