Kulev Blasts Shornikau Off a Chop
Maksim Shornikau raised to 160,000 in the cutoff before Fahredin Mustafov moved all in from the big blind with A♠Q♣. Shornikau folded A♣4♠.
A few hands later, Shornikau again opened to 160,000 under the gun with A♥J♦ and Alex Kulev called in the hijack holding A♦Q♣.
The flop came 9♥6♣5♣ and Shornikau continued for 240,000. Kulev called, and they both checked the 8♠ turn.
The 7♦ river put a straight on the board as Shornikau checked over to Kulev, who shoved all in.
"Floor, am I allowed to go to the bathroom while he's tanking. I really have to go?" Kulev yelled out to tournament officials as Shornikau went deep into the tank pondering the decision for his last 1,105,000. He burned through multiple time banks, but ended up surrendering the pot to Kulev.
