Kuliberda Puts Phung to the Test

Level 19 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante

In a three-handed pot, Helmut Phung bet 25,000 from the hijack on a flop of {9-Spades}{6-Clubs}{5-Spades} before Dawid Kuliberda raised to 100,000 in the big blind.

Katherina Aristotelos folded, but Phung called to see the {q-Clubs} on the turn. Kuliberda announced he was all in and Phung, with around 225,000 remaining, tanked for around two minutes before folding.
