Ince Busts While Tulin Leads
A loud scream emerged from the tournament area and it took no longer than one second to recognise the voice of Mikhail Korotkikh. On his second bullet, he check-shoved a jack-high flop with pocket kings and Kelly Ince quickly looked him up with pocket aces. A king on the turn was the reason for Korotkikh's celebration, as the Russian bumped his stack to two million.
Right after, table big stack Nikolai Tulin raised to 25,000 on the button and partypoker sponsored pro Jan-Peter Jachtmann called in the small blind. On the flop both players checked before Jachtmann bet the turn for 25,000, Tulin called.
The fell on the river and Jachtmann checked, then faced a bet worth 110,000 by Tulin. Jachtmann called after some consideration and Tulin turned over for two pair with the words "it's a value bet, a strong value bet." Jachtmann mucked the and dropped to just over half a million in chips.
