Rezaei Spikes Three-Outer to Double
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Boris Kolev opened to 2,000 from early position before Armin Rezaei three-bet to 8,000 from the cutoff. Hassan Nashar cold-called from the big blind.
Kolev moved all in as the big stack, and Rezaei, with 36,600, called for his tournament life. Nashar got out of the way.
Armin Rezaei: A♦Q♣
Boris Kolev: AxKx
Kolev had Rezaei dominated and looked certain to scoop in the pot after the 10♠4♦5♣ flop and 7♥ turn. However, the Q♠ river gave Rezaei the winner and breathed some new life into his stack.
