Belcher Can't Bluff Oganyan; Kulev Back In
Level 4
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Matthew Belcher opened to 20,000 and Aram Oganyan put out a raise to 62,000 before verbally announcing 80,000. A floor ruling determined that the raise would stay at 62,000. Belcher called.
Belcher checked on the J♥6♣3♣ flop and Oganyan checked back. Both players checked again on the Q♣ turn and Belcher then bet 60,000 on the 8♠ turn. Oganyan quickly called, leading Belcher to muck without showing.
Around the same time, Alex Kulev became the first player eliminated from the tournament before buying back in on a second and final bullet.
