Kulev Spikes a King to Survive
Level 25
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Teun Mulder opened to 6,050,000 from the small blind, putting Alex Kulev all in from the big blind. Kulev peeled his cards, looked at his stack and called to put himself at risk of elimination.
Alex Kulev: K♥9♣
Teun Mulder: Q♣J♦
The 2♠2♣5♥ flop kept Kulev ahead, but the Q♦ turn saw Mulder take the lead and put Kulev back at risk.
Kulev had only three outs to keep him alive, and the dealer peeled one of them on the K♦ river to keep him in his seat.
