Medarov Doubles Up to Starting Stack
Niveau 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Stanislau Melhui, Tina Bajric, and Vasil Medarov went three-way to a flop of K♠10♣3♥. It checked to Medarov on the button, who added 18,000 to the pot of 30,000. Melhui called from the big blind before Bajric got out of the way.
Melhui checked again on the 2♥ turn. Medarov bet 50,000, around half of his stack, and Melhui put his opponent all-in for 112,000. Medarov snap-called and the cards were tabled.
Vasil Medarov: K♥J♥3♠3♦ 
Stanislau Melhui: A♥K♦J♣10♦
Melhui's two pair did not improve on the 7♦ river, doubling up Medarov with his set.
