Ipekoglu Cracks Aces to Double
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Jovan Kenjic opened to 30,000 from under the gun before Ali El-Siblani three-bet to 75,000 from middle position. Umutcan Ipekoglu called in the big blind and Kenjic called as well.
The flop came K♦Q♣5♥ and Ipekoglu lead out with 55,000 bet. Kenjic called before El-Siblani raised to 250,000. Ipekoglu moved all in for 505,000 and Kenjic got out of the way while Siblani made the call with a covering stack to put Ipekoglu at risk.
Umutcan Ipekoglu: Q♠Q♦
Ali El-Siblani: A♥A♠
Ipekoglu was in excellent shape with middle set and only needed to fade two outs to avoid elimination. The 2♠ turn and 10♦ river were clean and he collected a full double up with the money bubble rapidly approaching.
