Tulin Dodges the River to Double Off the Champ
Nivel 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Sami Bechahed raised to 16,000 under the gun and Nikolai Tulin three-bet to 45,000 in early position. Bechahed called and they went heads-up to the 10♠7♦6♥ flop.
Both players checked and the Q♦ fell on the turn. Bechahed then bet 32,000 and Tulin raised to 85,000. Bechahed moved all in and Tulin called for 164,000.
Tulin had A♣Q♥ for top pair, while Bechahed was on a straight draw with J♣9♣. The A♠ fell on the river to give Tulin two pair and earn him a double up off the defending champion.
