Al-Kubasi's Turns Broadway to Crack Yankov's Set of Aces
Level 4
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ali Muthana Yassin Al-Kubasi raised to 19,000 from middle position and Fahredin Mustafov called from the small blind. Krasimir Yankov squeezed to 90,000 from big blind, and only Al-Kubasi called.
Yankov continued with a bet of 42,000 on the 10♣A♦5♣ flop and Al-Kubasi quickly called.
The turn came the Q♥ and Yankov fired a second barrel, this time for 125,000. Al-Kubasi pondered briefly before carving out the call.
The 6♦ landed on the river and Yankov shoved for around 350,000. Al-Kubasi snap-called and flipped over K♥J♥ for the nut straight. Yankov showed A♠A♣ for a set of aces, as all of his chips were sent over to Al-Kubasi.
