Ill-Timed Move by Thorel Doubles Kulev

Level 6 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

It remains unclear what the exact action was in a battle of the blinds as Jean-Noel Thorel had a squeeze to 27,000 out in front and then somehow pushed over the top against Alex Kulev, who happily called all-in to set up the following showdown.

Alex Kulev: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {k-Hearts}{4-Spades}

The board ran out {a-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{9-Spades}{10-Spades} and Kulev held the superior flush to double for 126,500.
