Mokri Runs into Rockets
Level 13
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Leon Sturm opened to 32,000 from the hijack and Kayhan Mokri defended from the big blind.
The flop came J♦2♣5♥. Mokri checked, Sturm bet 16,000 and Mokri moved all in for 117,000. Sturm, who had a covering stack, nearly beat him into the pot.
Kayhan Mokri: 5♦3♦
Leon Sturm: A♠A♣
Mokri pulled ahead with two pair on the 3♥ turn but the 4♥ river gave Sturm a wheel. Mokri was eliminated while Sturm continued his upward trajectory.
