Rakhimov Wins Classic Flip
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Sergei Bagirov opened in late position to 40,000 before action was on Azizjon Rakhimov in the cutoff who put in a three-bet to 125,000. It folded back to Bagirov who tanked for about a minute before he announced he was all in having Rakhimov covered by only a couple blinds. Rakhimov snap called and the cards hit their backs.
Azizjon Rakhimov: Q♣Q♥
Sergei Bagirov: A♦K♦
The full board ran out 5♣7♦8♣7♣4♣ and Rakhimov would earn the pure double and leave Bagirov's stack crippled in the process.
