Tulin Heros Grafton; Knosalla Flops Set Then Busts
Nikolai Tulin opened to 2,200 from the button before Sam Grafton three-bet to 10,500 from the blinds. Tulin called.
The 
flop checked through to the 
turn and Grafton check-called for 8,000.
On the 
turn, Grafton led out for 11,000 and after some thinking time Tulin called. Grafton tabled 
for ace-high and Tulin exposed his 
for the winner.
"Nice call cuz!" shouted Steven Buckner from across that table. "That was beautiful," he added.
The very next hand, Tulin opened to 2,200 from the cutoff and then Jens Knossalla jammed for 7,000 from the button. Dylan Smith made it 12,000 from the big blind and Tulin got out of the way.
Jens Knossalla: 
Dylan Smith: 
Knossalla was praying for a five and Buckner was also calling for the German's card.
Knossalla's prayers were answered as he made a set on the 
flop. He jumped out of his seat and was celebrating, but was soon brought back down to earth after Smith made a better set on the 
turn. The 
completed the board and Smith took in the pot.
"Nice show for TV," said Knosalla as the cameras were at his table before he departed the PSPC.
