Vasilev Runs Into Rockets

Barry Russell

Level 16 : 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Ivan Vasilev open-shoved 38,500 from the cutoff. Giovanni Agliozzo. in the small blind, called after the dealer confirmed the count.

Ivan Vasilev: Q♠J♦ All in
Giovanni Agliozzo: A♠A♥

The flop of 3♦8♣6♣ gave Vasilev very little hope. However, the 9♣ provided Vasilev with a gutshot, but a useless Q♦ sent him to the rail.
