Kulev Bluff Leads to Elimination
Level 19
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
'Goofy' raised to 100,000 under the gun and faced a three-bet to 250,000 from Alex Kulev in the hijack, which he called.
'Goofy' check-called a bet of 125,000 on a 4♥2♣A♠ flop, before the 7♣ turn checked through. 'Goofy' then chose to lead out for 440,000 on the 9♠ river. Kulev responded with a raise to roughly 1,250,000, leaving a single 5,000 chip behind the betting line. 'Goofy' called immediately and, upon seeing Kulev's K♥9♥, tabled 7♠7♥ for a flopped set.
Left with just one-fifth of a small blind, Kulev moved all in the very next hand. Unable to win a flip, he was eliminated in 22nd place.
