Boyaciyan Shoves

Level 11 : 1,700/3,500, 3,500 ante

The player in the under-the-gun position raised to 8,700 and was called by Alexander Lakhov in mid-position. David Boyaciyan three-bet to 32,000 from the lojack and the rest of the table folded. The initial raiser made the call but Lakhov folded.

The flop came {10-Clubs}{j-Spades}{5-Hearts}, the initial raiser bet 32,000 and Boyaciyan responded with a shove. His opponent asked for a count, the dealer confirmed Boyaciyan had 142,700 behind. The under-the-gun player contemplated his options for a minute before opting to let the hand go.
