Koutoupas Doubles on the Bubble
Level 16
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
We missed the pre flop action, but David Boyaciyan later told us what had happened. Sotirios Koutoupas opened the button and Dzmitry Urbanovich three bet from the big blind, Koutoupas called.
On the 
flop Urbanovich lead out for 23,500. Koutoupas made the call, and the 
popped up on the turn. Urbanovich now bet out 31,500 and Koutoupas raised it up to 80,500 with a little more than that behind. Urbanovich thought for a bit before shoving all in, Koutoupas instantly called for 167,000 total.
Urbanovich showed his 
and was drawing to just the hearts as Koutoupas showed 
.
The river came the 
and Koutoupas doubled. Bubble still ongoing with about ten minutes left in the level.
