Aslan Hits Quads in a Monster Pot
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Roman Gadzhiev bet 8,500 from under the gun on a flop of 2♦6♥10♦ before Kemal Aslan raised to 25,500 in the small blind. The big blind then reraised to 82,000.
Gadzhiev tanked for a minute before folding, while Aslan moved all in for 384,000 and the big blind called.
Kemal Aslan: 2♠2♥ 
Opponent: 9♦6♦
Aslan was ahead with a set of deuces but needed to fade his opponent's flush draw. The A♣ turn was safe, while the 2♣ fell on the river to give Aslan quads and the massive pot that catapulted him amongst the chip leaders.
