Luca Chips Up Without Showdown

Level 5 : 1,200/2,400, 400 ante

Viacheslav Buldygin raised to 5,100 from under the gun and picked up four callers including Alexander Uskov, Ivan Luca, Ilya Bulychev in the small blind and Jean-Noel Thorel in the big blind. The flop came {A-Clubs}{J-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Bulychev bet 8,000, which Thorel called. Buldygin folded, as did Uskov, before Luca raised it up to 22,700.

The action was back on Bulychev, and he used one time bank chip, then folded with six seconds left on the next clock. Thorel also folded and the pot was shipped to Luca, while Bulychev grinned over from the other side of the table with a "very nice" on his lips.
