Kulev Heroes His Way to a Big Double
Level 27
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Alex Kulev raised to 400,000 on the button and Damir Gabdullin called.
Both players checked the J♣5♥4♠ flop. Gabdullin then led out for 1,400,000 on the 6♠ turn, and Kulev called.
The river was the 2♥ and Gabdullin moved all in. Kulev spent a few minutes pondering the decision for his tournament life, and he eventually called for 4,935,000.
Gabdullin could only show K♥8♥ for a bluff. "I win?" Kulev said as he turned over A♦4♦ for a pair of fours to win the pot and double up.
