Kulju Doubles on the Bubble
Stein Pedersen raised from under the gun and was called by Birgir Ellingsen as well as Mario Jürgens in the big blind. The K?7?6? flop was checked to Ellingsen and he bet 18,000. Jürgens check-raised to 48,000 only for Pedersen to push all-in.
Ellingsen folded and Jürgens also let go, flashing his A?K? for top pair top kicker. Pedersen exposed his A?A? and Ellingsen showed pocket queens!
During the same hand on table 14, Kalle Kulju raised to 12,000 and Karl Persson three-bet to 24,000 for Kulju to call.
Persson continued on the 9?8?2? flop to get called, then jammed the 3? turn. Kulju called all-in for 79,000 and the showdown unfolded when all other hands had finished.
Kalle Kulju: A?A? 
Karl Persson: J?J?
Persson needed a jack or spades but the 6? river ensured the double of Kulju.
